Faults are found at transform boundaries like at the San andrais fault
What is fault land?

What type of fault causes the land to move downward?
In a normal fault the hanging wall moves downward. With this type of fault, the hanging wall also shifts horizontally away from the fault line.

What satellite that monitors a fault detects and increasing tilt in the land surface along the fault?
a seismograph
What do you call land forms that have steep slopes?
fault
Difference between fault block mountains and folded mountains?
Fault mountains are formed when rocks crack down due to lines of weakness in the earths crust. This cause huge blocks to move forming block mountains. Fold mountains are formed when land is folded into wave like shapes because of the tectonic movements underneath the earth crust.
How are the three types of mountains different?
The three types of mountains are volcanic mountains, folded mountains, and fault-block mountains. Volcanic mountains are formed from volcanic activity, folded mountains are created from tectonic plate movements and compression, and fault-block mountains are the result of faults in the Earth's crust causing blocks of land to move up or down.
What type of fault causes the land to move downward?
In a normal fault the hanging wall moves downward. With this type of fault, the hanging wall also shifts horizontally away from the fault line.
Is landslide the same thing as a fault?
No, a landslide is masses of land that has been crushed and is in a liquid-ish state and slides down the sides of mountains, ranges anywhere.. a fault is a line underground that when land masses move and hit the fault causes earthquakes.

Up
