What else can I help you with?
Which type of fault occurs when rocks are pushed together as they meet?
These will form reverse or thrust faults.
Which fault occurs in a sideways fashion?
Strike slip faults display horizontal or "sideways" deformation.
Differences between a fault and a fold?
Folds are the when the rock layers bend. Faults are breaks in the rock layers. Folds are called anticlines and synclines. Faults are called reverse faults, normal faults, or strike-slip faults.
What happens when tectonic plates to cause an earthquake?
In most cases the plates along the boundary will shift. How they shift depends on the kind of plate movement that is ocurring. In many cases the earthquake is not directly on the plate boundary, but is rather triggered by one of the many smaller faults created by the stresses found near these boundaries.
What is the procedure to be followed for investigatingthe faults and how do you deal with intermittent faults?
To investigate faults, begin by gathering detailed information about the issue, including symptoms, error messages, and conditions under which the fault occurs. Next, perform a systematic analysis, isolating components and testing them to identify the root cause. For intermittent faults, maintain detailed logs and utilize monitoring tools to capture data during fault occurrences, and replicate the conditions under which the fault manifests to better understand its behavior. Document findings and implement solutions while continuously monitoring for recurrence.
Where do majority of faults occurs?
The majority of faults occur in the plate boundaries.
Where do most faults occurs?
Most Faults Occur Where The Earths Crust Is Extended
What often occurs along faults or breaks in earths crust where movement occurs?
earthquakes
Why do faults in the earth cause earthquake?
Because the earth's plates shift
What type of fault occurs because of compression?
reverse faults
Which fault occurs at divergent boundary?
Normal Faults, (Rifting).
What kind of fault occurs at divergentplate boundaries?
Normal faults.
What type of movement occurs along normal faults?
vertical... i think
What is the relationship between faults and earthquakes?
Faults are fractures in the Earth's crust where rocks have moved past each other. When the rocks along a fault suddenly shift, it can cause an earthquake. The movement along faults is what generates the energy that produces earthquakes.
The surface of a break in a section of rock?
The surface of a break in a rock is called a fault. It occurs when there is movement along the break, causing the rock to shift position. Faults can range in size and can be caused by tectonic forces, weathering, or other geological processes.
What are fractures in rocks where movement occurrs?
Fractures in rocks where movement occurs are called faults. These are surfaces along which rocks have broken and moved in response to stress. Faults are commonly found at tectonic plate boundaries and can result in earthquakes when movement happens along them.
Can a red shift and a blue shift exist on the same object at the same time?
No, red shift and blue shift are opposite phenomena caused by the Doppler effect. Red shift occurs when an object is moving away from the observer, while blue shift occurs when an object is moving towards the observer. It is not possible for an object to exhibit both red shift and blue shift simultaneously.
