What is a bad connection in an electrical circuit called?
"A wiring fault" which - depending on the actual behavior of the bad connection - might also be described as "an intermittent fault", "a high resistance fault", or a combination of all three terms. For example: "An intermittent, high resistance wiring fault".
What kind of fault is the Great Rift Valley in Africa?
It's a Normal Fault.
What fault causes rocks to become twisted and strained when they snag each other?
The fault type that causes rocks to become twisted and strained when they snag each other is a strike-slip fault. In a strike-slip fault, rocks on either side of the fault move horizontally past each other, leading to twisting and straining along the fault zone. This type of movement is typical in transform plate boundaries such as the San Andreas Fault in California.
What fault is it that rocks become twisted and strained when they snag each other?
When rocks become twisted and strained due to snagging, it is due to the tectonic forces acting on them. These forces can cause rocks to deform and bend, resulting in various types of rock formations like folds and faults. The interaction between these rocks under stress can lead to their deformation and eventual displacement along fault lines.
What motion causes normal fault?
