The kind of fault you may be contemplating about is a transform fault which occurs like all earth quakes when the Earth's tectonic plates move as sea currents change there appearance.
A transform fault is the force of two surfaces rubbing across each other creating huge earth quakes like the ones of 1906 and 1989 in San Andreas.
What else can I help you with?
What kind of force is acting on the object if its pushing or pulling?
Applied Force
What kind of force does a normal fault have?
A normal one.
What kind of force occurs in San Andreas fault?
transform boundary
What kind of force causes and object to change its motion?
A net force acting on the object causes it to change its motion. This force can be a result of pushing, pulling, gravity, friction, or other interactions with the object's environment. The object will accelerate in the direction of the net force applied to it.
What kind of fault moves because it is under tension?
A normal fault moves because it is under tension. In a normal fault, the hanging wall moves down relative to the footwall due to the pulling apart of the Earth's crust, creating space and tension that cause the fault to move.
What kind of force occurs at the San Andras fault?
The San Andreas Fault is a transform fault where tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally. The force at the fault is primarily due to the movement of the North American Plate and the Pacific Plate, causing stress to build up until it is released in the form of earthquakes.
What kind of force do your muscles exert on an elastic band when you stretch it?
When you stretch an elastic band, your muscles exert a pulling force on the band. The force is generated by the contraction of your muscles, which results in the stretching of the band.
What kind of force occurs in the San Andreas fault?
The San Andreas Fault is a strike-slip fault, where two tectonic plates move horizontally past each other. The main force causing movement along the fault is the tectonic forces generated by the motion of the Pacific Plate relative to the North American Plate.
What kind of fault is the Owens fault?
it is a normal fault.
What kind of fault is the Hayward fault?
the Hayward fault is a "transform" fault. :)
What kind of force is present in stretchedstringsropesand cables?
Tension force is present in stretched strings, ropes, and cables. This force is caused by the pulling or stretching of the material, creating a force that acts along the length of the object to keep it taut or in place.
What kind of faults does compression causes?
a compression force would cause a normal fault. i rember by the name compress "press" together
