Strike slip faults are formed as a result of shear stresses.
However strictly speaking all faults are in a shear stress state as there is usually movement in differing directions along both sides of the fault however in the other cases, compressive or tensile stresses are the cause of the initial fault formation.

The type of stress force that produces a strike-slip fault is?
The type of force found in a strike slip fault is lateral force.
What type of fault is created by shear stress?
Shear stress causes Transform faults, in strike-slip zones of conservative boundaries.
Wind shear can result in the formation of a?
Wind shear can result in the formation of a tornado.
Which type of fault is the result of tension forces?
A normal fault.
Shear forces at a fault can form?
Shear forces are the responses of a rock to deformation usually by compressive stress. These forces form a strike slip fault.
What type of fault has shear force?
A strike-slip fault
Which type of fault is the result of shearing?
Strike slip faults are formed as a result of shear stresses. However strictly speaking all faults are in a shear stress state as there is usually movement in differing directions along both sides of the fault however in the other cases, compressive or tensile stresses are the cause of the initial fault formation.
The type of stress force that produces a strike-slip fault is?
The type of force found in a strike slip fault is lateral force.
What type of fault is caused by shear faults?
A strike slip fault.
What type of stress caused the San Andreas fault?
Tectonic shear stress.
What type of fault is created by shear stress?
Shear stress causes Transform faults, in strike-slip zones of conservative boundaries.
What stress is responsible for each fault?
The type of stress responsible for each fault ( Normal, Reverse, Sinistral, And Dextral) is shear. These four types of fault all are apart or not connected. Shear is also a way to say apart or not connected because you are pulling two things apart so they are separated. The same thing goes for the fault this is why the answer is shear.
Which type of fault is the result of tension and why?
Normal Fault
What type of FAULT is the result of compression forces?
a reverse fault
Wind shear can result in the formation of a?
Wind shear can result in the formation of a tornado.
Which type of fault is the result of tension forces?
A normal fault.
What causes a strike slip fault?
shear
