normal
That is a fault line.
faults are caused by the plates under neath earth crashing together and/or parting
A volcano is most often formed whon one tectonic plate moves under another
Because there are different sizes of fault lines.
There are no tricks in karate. It is hard work and practice under a knowledgeable instructor.
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.
normal
A normal fault moves because of tension. In this type of fault, the hanging wall moves down relative to the footwall due to the stretching and pulling apart of the Earth's crust.
Normal Thrust
Normal faults
Rocks being pulled apart are under tension. This is found at divergent plate boundaries. It is a tension fault.
A reverse fault moves because it is under compression. In a reverse fault, the hanging wall moves up relative to the footwall due to compressional forces in the Earth's crust. This type of fault is associated with convergent plate boundaries where tectonic plates collide.
A reverse fault moves because it is under compression. The dip of a reverse fault is relatively steep, greater than 45-degrees.
A tension fault occurs when there is stretching or pulling apart of the Earth's crust, which can lead to earthquakes as the rock breaks under the stress. This type of fault is associated with tectonic plate movements and occurs along divergent plate boundaries.
A reverse fault is under compression. In a reverse fault, the hanging wall moves up relative to the footwall due to compression forces in the Earth's crust. This type of fault is common in areas with convergent tectonic plate boundaries.
Yes, tension can cause fault-block mountains and valleys to form. In areas where the Earth's crust is under tension, blocks of rock are pulled apart, resulting in one block moving up and the other moving down along normal faults. Over time, this movement can lead to the formation of fault-block mountains and valleys.
Straws are typically stronger under tension, which means they are better at withstanding a pulling force rather than a pushing force. This is because the material of the straw is more likely to deform or buckle under compression rather than stretch or break under tension.
