Joint fault is an extense shear joint in basalt flows, dominantly layer-parallel and probably generated initially by the differential inertial movements inside the cooling lava flow of portions with different melt-viscosities. Their planar part is probably conditioned by the isotherms distribution, while curved segments may be related to brittle-ductile fissure propagations along their edges.
A joint is a fracture in a rock where there has not been any significant movement along the fracture surface. A fault is a fracture where there has been movement along the fracture surface. Joints do not displace the rock on either side of the fracture, while faults involve displacement.
A deep crack in the earth's surface is a fault It can also be a joint.
Cracks in rocks of the crust are known broadly as discontinuities. If there is relative movement of the rocks on the two sides of the crack, then it is known as a fault. If there is not then it is known as a joint.
No, the San Andreas Fault is a strike-slip fault, not 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.
A joint is a fracture in a rock where there has not been any significant movement along the fracture surface. A fault is a fracture where there has been movement along the fracture surface. Joints do not displace the rock on either side of the fracture, while faults involve displacement.

The driver responsible for the accident is always at fault. However, Both parties are usually found at fault in this instance. This is generally called Joint fault.
It's a fault that's not always present - otherwise known as an 'intermittent fault' for example, a TV screen may work fine when first switched on, but as it 'warms up', it goes blank - indicating a 'dry-joint'
A joint is a crack in rock; a fault is a crack in rock along which the rocks have been displaced.
Faults are actually the reason earthquakes start. A fault is two Techtonic Platesrubbing against each other, creating tension and stress. When thetension and stress overcomes the strength of the fault, the two plates slip/move,causing the ground to move in various ways, which is also called an earthquake.Techtonic Plates: plates made up of the earths crust that are moving along alayer of magma inside the earth,called the mantle.
If you were both backing out at the same time, then it will be considered joint fault, sometimes called contributory negligence. That means both drivers failed to notice the other driver.

A place where two tectonic plates meet is a fracture in the Earth.

There was a road accident today on the High Street at its junction with Hugh Lupus Street Bolton. There was a fault in the electrics, our electrician suspected a fault in the junction box. I'm lost, I think I should have left the Motorway at that last junction. Junction is the name of a fictional planet in the Dune universe.
