the faul-block mountains are made of huge tilted blocks of rock that are separated from surrounding rock by fault
Tectonic stress forms faults and blocks mountains.
No, only reverse faults can cause a mountain.
These mountains form when faults or cracks in the earth's crust force some materials or blocks of rock up and others down. Instead of the earth folding over, the earth's crust fractures (pulls apart). It breaks up into blocks or chunks. Sometimes these blocks of rock move up and down, as they move apart and blocks of rock end up being stacked on one another.
False. These are called Horst mountains.
The three types of non-boundary mountains are volcanic mountains, dome mountains, and fault-block mountains. Volcanic mountains form from volcanic activity, dome mountains are created by the uplifting of large blocks of crust, and fault-block mountains are formed when large crustal blocks are uplifted along faults.
The two types of faults that can result in mountains are reverse faults and normal faults.
The main direction of the stress on blocks of rock at normal faults, reverse faults and the strike slip faults usually happens at the weak areas.
it means that boy over there
Your faults are flaws in your personality. Earth's faults are cracks in the ground along which blocks of rock move.
