When two normal faults cause valleys to drop down on either side of a block of rock what type of landform results?
mountains
What type faults create mountain and valleys?
Reverse and normal
Which landform results when one of earths plates slide past one another?
faults
What is the surface feature produced by crustal movements at a transform plate boundary?
Valleys, Cliffs, Mountains and Volcanoescanada and australla
Is there an relationship between earthquake zones and topography?
Yes, active faults may appear on the surface in the form of mountains and valleys. This tends to be the result of fault movement/earthquake activity over millions of years.
When two normal faults cause valleys to drop down on either side of a block of rock what type of landform results?
mountains
What type of landforms or activity can be found at a convergent boundary?
You could find mountains, valleys, faults, subduction zones, trenches, or experience volcanism or earthquakes.
What landforms are formed by a transform fault?
The landforms created by faults are Horst and Graben which forms the Block mountains and associated Valleys.
What Types of landforms made by reverse faults?
Landforms created at reverse faults include mountain ranges and volcanoes. Reverse faults occur at convergent boundaries and the type of convergent boundary determines the landform created.
What type faults create mountain and valleys?
Reverse and normal
What landforms do strike-slip faults form?
Take the san Andreas fault for example. It is located in California.
What deformational structures results in brittle deformation?
faults
What they form when the plates moves slowly?
trenches or mountains or rift valleys or faults depends which direction the plates move
How volcanoes form in the central valley of a divergent boundary?
Earthquakes occur along the faults, and volcanoes form where the magma reaches the surface. And from there it forms valleys.
How do volcanos form in the central valley of a divergent boundary?
Earthquakes occur along the faults, and volcanoes form where the magma reaches the surface. And from there it forms valleys.
Which landform results when one of earths plates slide past one another?
faults
Where rift valleys form?
A rift valley forms when the lithospheric stretches, tension stress occurs, causing rock to pull apart, break, and form normal faults.
