What kind of fault moves because it is under compression?
Reverse faults move due to being under pressure.
A what fault moves because it is under compression?
A reverse fault moves because it is under compression. The dip of a reverse fault is relatively steep, greater than 45-degrees.
How are the 3 types of fault similar?
All the faults created by convention current Convention current creates heat and pressure. Magma gets hotter by the heat made by convention current .The pressure makes the magma to go up in to crusts and bursts out from a mountain. When magma gets hotter its moves the tectonic plates which cases a earthquake. When tectonic plates moves up and down under the sea that causes a tsunami.
What is the word for a tectonic plate going under another causing mountains?
That would be called a Normal Fault. Normal Fault is when a tectonic plate appears to have moved down the fault, and the fault is said to be a normal fault.
How does a thrust fault form?
A high-angle fault under compression
What kind of fault moves because it is under tension?
A normal fault moves because it is under tension.
What kind of fault moves because it is under compression?
Reverse faults move due to being under pressure.
What fault moves because it under tension?
normal

What type of fault moves because it is under tension?
Normal faults
What fault moves because it is under tension.?
normal
How does a fault moves when it is under compression?
forwrd against each other
Air moves out of the lungs because?
The muscles that expand the rib cage relax and let it fall back into place under its own weight. That leads to higher pressure in the lung that outside and so air moved from the high pressure to the low pressure out of the lung.
What kind of currents cause wind?
Winds are caused by differences in air pressure not currents. Air under high pressure moves toward areas of low pressure.
What type of fault move because its under tension?
Normal faults
