What else can I help you with?
What is the type of fault where a hanging wall block moves up relative to the footwall block with a dip of greater than 45 degrees?
That type of fault is called a reverse fault. Reverse faults are characterized by the hanging wall block moving up and over the footwall block at a steep angle, typically greater than 45 degrees.
Is the San Andreas Fault a normal fault?
No, the San Andreas Fault is a strike-slip fault, not a normal fault.
Is a thrust fault a normal fault?
No, a thrust fault is a type of reverse fault, where the hanging wall moves up and over the footwall. In contrast, a normal fault is a type of fault where the hanging wall moves down relative to the footwall.
Which fault occurs when the hanging wall moves down relative to the foot wall?
Actually the first one is right! In my science book its clearly says :normal fault, the fault is at an angle so one block of rock lies above the fault while the other fault lies below the fault. When movement occurs along a normal fault, the hanging wall slips downward. sorry Smallvillegirl... SO THE ANSWER IS NORMAL FAULTSActually, that's wrong. I have the same crossword puzzle whoever answered the question, and it was assigned for homework, and if number 6 across is shearing, number 5 down would have to be reverse. It is reverse fault.=SmallvilleGrl=Old Answer:The answer to this question is easy! Unless you don't know your Earth Science of course! There are three different types of faults:Normal Faults, Reverse Faults, and Strike-slip Faults.A strike-slip fault(or a latteral fault) moves in opposition of each other.A reverse fault is when the hanging wall moves upward caused by compression.A normal fault is when the hanging wall moves downward caused by tension.So there you have it! The answer to your question is obviously a NORMAL FAULT!!!!!If you need any more answers' about Earth Science post some more questions and I'll answer them for ya!!!!!sincerely,~Anonymous~
What fault is closest to San Ramon?
The closest fault to San Ramon is the Calaveras Fault, which runs along the eastern side of the city. This fault is part of the larger San Andreas Fault system.
Is a thrust fault the same as normal fault?
No. A thrust fault is a reverse fault with a dip angle of less than 45 degrees.
What is 147 degrees Celsius?
-14.7 degrees Celsius equates to 5.54 degrees Fahrenheit.
What is a blind fault?
A blind thrust fault is a geological term for a type of thrust fault which does not appear on the surface - where a hanging wall makes an angle with the horizontal of less than 45 degrees, but is hidden from view.
A what fault moves because it is under compression?
A reverse fault moves because it is under compression. The dip of a reverse fault is relatively steep, greater than 45-degrees.
Who is at fault if you hit a horse?
u ar coz humans mental ability is a highly developed one unlike the infrahumans
Can landlord charge 60 dollars to replace a window screen?
i think he need 60$ for his mental treatment. it's not his fault.
What is the type of fault where a hanging wall block moves up relative to the footwall block with a dip of greater than 45 degrees?
That type of fault is called a reverse fault. Reverse faults are characterized by the hanging wall block moving up and over the footwall block at a steep angle, typically greater than 45 degrees.
There is no such thing as mental illness only varying degrees of irresponsibility who said that?

What is a thrust fault is a?
A blind thrust fault is a geological term for a type of thrust fault which does not appear on the surface - where a hanging wall makes an angle with the horizontal of less than 45 degrees, but is hidden from view.
Difference between thrust and reverse fault?
There is a slight difference. A thrust fault is a variety of reverse fault with a dip angle of less than 45 degrees.
What is a fault that is formed when compression causes the hanging wall to move over the foot wall is a?
This is called a reverse or thrust fault.
If you get hyper a lot are you mental?
no. definitely not. being mental is having mental (brain) issues and getting hyper doesn't have anything to do with that. People get hyper from high sugar levels. this is most commonly demonstrated in diabetic people. but there's nothing wrong with being hyper. it's really not their fault.
