In geology, shearing occurs when rocks slide past each other horizontally in opposite directions. The kind of fault created by shearing is called a strike-slip fault.
It creates strike-slip faults.
strike-slip faults move along each other from shearing
The stress that causes strike-slip faults is produced by a shearing force and so is called shear stress.
a. Transform:transform boundaries or motion creates strike-slip faults.b. Convergent:convergent boundaries or motion creates reverse faults.c. Divergent:divergent motion creates a normal fault.
The two types of faults that can result in mountains are reverse faults and normal faults.
No. Your terminology is close but not quite right. The three main types of faults are normal faults, reverse faults, and strike-slip faults. Strike-slip faults may also be called transform faults.

Shearing, tension, and compression work over millions of years to change the shape and volume of rock
Yes, a strike-slip fault is caused by shearing.
The two types of faults that can result in mountains are reverse faults and normal faults.
The three types of faults are Normal faults, Reverse faults, and Strike and Slip fault
