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 air moves horizontally?
When air is moving horizontally, that is known as wind.
What fault moves rock downward?
a normal fault
What is the GFCI?
A "GFCI" is a ground fault circuit interrupter. For more information see the link below.
What type of boundary does not include a subduction zone?
A couple different types... A strike-slip fault (either right lateral or left lateral) like the San Andreas fault in California. This type of fault moves horizontally. A divergent zone is where two plates are moving away from one another, like the mid Atlantic ridge.
Which type of fault moves horizontally your mom?

In a fault the hanging wall moves down relative to the footwall?
This is true of normal faults. In thrust or reverse faults, the hanging wall moves up relative to the footwall and in strike slip faults, it moves horizontally relative to the footwall.
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 is A fault with horizontal movement?
A horizontally moving fault is called a strike-slip fault
What air moves horizontally?
When air is moving horizontally, that is known as wind.
Explain how tectonic forces created the san Andreas fault zone?
The San Andreas fault is an example of a strike-slip fault. It is located at a transform boundary, and was created when the Pacific plate and North American plate ground past one another horizontally.
What is a Transform Fault Strike-Slip Boundary?
This is a plate boundary where two tectonic plates moves or slides horizontally past one another with little or no destruction or creation done to the crust.
What is air that moves horizontally called?
wind
What is a slip system?
A Strike Slip fault is where the two sides of the fault move past each other horizontally.
What fault is a product of horizontally directed tensional stresses?
Normal Faults
What fault moves because of tension?
A Normal fault
What fault moves rock downward?
a normal fault
