What kind of fault moves because it is under tension?
A normal fault moves because it is under tension. In a normal fault, the hanging wall moves down relative to the footwall due to the pulling apart of the Earth's crust, creating space and tension that cause the fault to move.
What type of fault moves because it is under tension?
A normal fault moves because of tension. In this type of fault, the hanging wall moves down relative to the footwall due to the stretching and pulling apart of the Earth's crust.
Which type of fault is under tension?
Normal Thrust
Type of fault that may form when rocks are pulled apart due to tension?
Rocks being pulled apart are under tension. This is found at divergent plate boundaries. It is a tension fault.
Which type of fault is the result of tension?
Normal faults are the result of tensile stresses.

Normal faults are the result of tensile stresses.
Which type of fault is the result of tension forces?
A normal fault.

normal
Rock above a fault that moves downward?
It moves downward.. the force behind it is tension
What is the difference between a normal fault and reverse fault?
A Reverse fault is happens when tectonic forces cause compression that PUSHES rocks together. Normal fault happens when tectonic forces cause tension that PULLS rocks apart.Normal fault is when the hanging block moves down relative to foot block wall where as the reverse fault is formed when the hanging block wall moves up relative to the foot block walls a result of tension and compression force respectively
What type of fault move because its under tension?
Normal faults
