divergent bounders or shearing forces
In a reverse fault, compressional forces push rocks from opposite directions, causing the rocks to move vertically along the fault plane. The hanging wall moves up relative to the footwall due to this compressional force.
Yes, shearing forces push rocks in different directions along a plane, causing them to slide past each other horizontally. This type of stress typically occurs at transform plate boundaries where tectonic plates slide horizontally past each other.
The rocks on opposite sides of a fault that move in opposite directions or in the same direction at different rates are called fault blocks. These blocks can move horizontally, vertically, or rotationally along the fault line.
Shearing in the Earth's crust occurs when forces cause rocks to move horizontally in opposite directions along a fault line. This movement results in a strain that generates earthquakes as the rocks rupture along the fault. Shearing is a type of stress that can lead to faulting and seismic activity.
In a strike-slip fault, rocks on opposite sides move horizontally past each other in opposite directions or at different rates. This movement is caused by shear stress and can result in earthquakes. This type of fault boundary is commonly found along transform plate boundaries.
Shearing is the force that pushes rocks from different but not opposite directions. Secondary waves, S waves are all names for the shearing.

Tensional forces, such as those found at tectonic plate boundaries where plates move away from each other, can tear rocks apart by pushing them in opposite directions. This can lead to the formation of faults and fractures in the rocks.
