What are the rocks on opposite sides of a fault that move in opposite directions or in the same direction at different rates called?

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.


Where rocks on opposite sides of a fault move in opposite direction or in the same directiion at differnent rates?

In a strike-slip fault, rocks on opposite sides move horizontally past each other in opposite directions or at different rates. This type of fault is categorized as either left-lateral or right-lateral based on the direction of movement when facing the fault.


Two places on earth that you can't travel east or west?

north and south pole. at the north pole the only direction you can move is south, at the south pole the only direction you can move is north... however this falls apart as soon as you leave the pole (even one step) then you can turn right or left and move east or west. (though not far)


What direction do high and low pressure systems move and why?

High pressure systems typically move in a clockwise direction in the Northern Hemisphere and a counterclockwise direction in the Southern Hemisphere due to the rotation of the Earth. Low pressure systems move in the opposite direction. These movements are influenced by the Coriolis effect, which deflects air masses to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere, creating these circulation patterns.

How does a push and pull machine work to move objects in opposite directions?

A push and pull machine works by applying force in opposite directions to move objects. When a force is applied in one direction (push), it causes the object to move in that direction. Similarly, when a force is applied in the opposite direction (pull), it causes the object to move in the opposite direction. This back-and-forth motion helps to move objects in opposite directions using the push and pull forces.

Do the Gears in a Belt Drive Move in the Same Direction?

In a belt drive system, the gears do not move in the same direction. When one gear (the driver) rotates, it causes the belt to move in one direction, which in turn makes the other gear (the driven) rotate in the opposite direction. This is due to the nature of how belts wrap around the gears.
