This could cause an earthquake.
Tensional boundary is the meeting zone of two tectonic plates at a normal fault; the plates move apart
Energy is released and earthquakes happen.
That's called an earthquake.
Fault-block landforms (mountains, hills, ridges, etc.) are formed when large areas of bedrock are widely broken up by faults creating large vertical displacements of continental crust.These mountains are formed by the Earth's crust being stretched and extended by tensional forces. Fault block mountains commonly accompany rifting, another indicator of tensional tectonic forces.
Earthquake
Sudden displacements along fault fissures can cause tremors and earthquakes.

A break or crack along which rocks move is called a fault. Sudden motion along the faults result to earthquakes.

A sudden shift of the earth's crust along a fault could result in an earthquake.
