The rock gets farther a part from the fault
YES. A Strike-slip fault is usually a transform boundary.
A Transform fault boundaries are where two plates are sliding horizontally past one another. They sometimes even get stuck. the longer the time before the plates slip, the stronger the earthquake.
It is a strike-slip fault.
Not necessarily. Rock layers along a strike-slip fault may be offset if they are dipping.
A fault with little or no vertical movement is called a strike-slip fault. In this type of fault, the rocks on either side of the fault move horizontally past each other, usually in a side-to-side motion. This movement can cause earthquakes when the stress along the fault overcomes friction and the rocks suddenly slip.
Crustal plates are grinding past each other in a strike-slip fault.
Dip-Slip fault is a bedding fault and its pattern is En-Echelon, while Strike Slip fault is strike fault and its pattern is Parallel.
The Hayward Fault is a Strike-slip Fault.
Strike slip fault - Look it up!
The main difference between a dip-slip fault and a strike-slip fault is the direction of movement. In a dip-slip fault, the movement is primarily vertical along the dip direction of the fault plane, either up or down. In a strike-slip fault, the movement is primarily horizontal along the strike direction of the fault plane, either to the left or right.
strike-slip
No. It is a strike-slip fault.
it occurs along a transform boundary
YES. A Strike-slip fault is usually a transform boundary.
A fault that is a combination of dip-slip and strike-slip movements
A strike slip fault.
No. They can form anywhere on Earth's surface / within the lithosphere that is affected by shear stress. For example the fault that caused the 2010 Haitian earthquake was a strike slip fault.
