What type of fault generally occurs at a convergent boundary?

A reverse fault generally occurs at a convergent boundary where two tectonic plates collide and one is forced over the other, causing compression and uplift of the Earth's crust.

What types of stress occurs at divergent plate boundarys?

Tensional stress


This type of fault occurs when rock above the fault moves upward at the fault line?

A reverse fault occurs when rock above the fault moves upward at the fault line. This type of fault is associated with compressional stress where the hanging wall moves up relative to the footwall. Reverse faults are common in regions undergoing compression, such as convergent plate boundaries.


What type of fault do you typically find along a convergent plate boundary?

Along a convergent plate boundary, you typically find a reverse fault or thrust fault. This type of fault occurs when the two tectonic plates are pushing against each other, causing one plate to be forced up and over the other plate. This movement can lead to earthquakes and mountain building.


What type of fault occurs when compression forces push one side of the fault upward and the other side downward?

A reverse fault occurs when compression forces push one side of the fault upward and the other side downward. This type of fault is associated with convergent plate boundaries where tectonic forces cause crustal rocks to be pushed together.
