It was a thrust fault, a covergent plate movement.
Shearing stress is one of three kinds of stresses. Compressional and tensional are the others. Shearing stress is associated with transform. The other two kinds of plate boundaries are convergent and divergent.
Shallow focus earthquakes are associated with divergent and transform plate boundaries. These earthquakes typically occur within the top 70 kilometers of the Earth's crust and are caused by the movement of tectonic plates against each other.
The three main transform boundaries are the San Andreas Fault in California, the Alpine Fault in New Zealand, and the North Anatolian Fault in Turkey. These boundaries are characterized by horizontal movement that occurs as tectonic plates slide past each other.
Oceanic - oceanic divergent boundary and Continental - oceanic divergent boundary.
Both divergent boundaries and transform boundaries involve horizontal movement of Earth's tectonic plates. At divergent boundaries, plates move apart, creating new crust, while at transform boundaries, plates slide horizontally past each other. Both types of boundaries contribute to the overall movement and rearrangement of Earth's lithosphere.
Divergent. Convergent. Transform.
Tectonic movement.
Convergent,Divergent, and Transform Boundaries
There are actually 4 types.....1.convergent-two plates pushing toward each other2.divergent-Two plates moving apart3.subduction-one plate is pulled under the edge of another4.Transform\lateral-Two plates slide past each other
That is easy there are acctuaslly 4 they are convergent,covergent subduction, divergent, and transform.
Divergent (moving apart), convergent (moving together) and transform (passing alongside).
There are three basic plate movement types, first there is convergent movement. Secondly, there is divergent movement and lastly there is transform movements.
divergent, transform and convergent
Convergent when they come together. Divergent when they go apart. Transform when they slide against each other.
The movement of the plates can be compared to... Transform boundary- sliding past one another convergent boundary- moving together divergent boundary- pulling apart
A volcano itself is not an example of a plate boundary. They are found at divergent and convergent boundaries.
Because they realy dont create any prominent geographical or geological feature/landform.
