Is the Emerson fault line constructive?
Destructive. In geologic time, the construction of the supercontinent Pangaea involved the collision of tectonic plates, including the African plate and the North American plate. Where the oceanic plate was subducted under the North American continental plate, the Appalachian Mountains were formed. The Emerson Fault in Georgia is one remnant of these collisions, and is part of the system originally referred to as the Cartersville Fault. (see related Geology link)
If a fault occurs on an area where rock layers have folded what kind of fault will it be?
A fault that occurs on folded rock layers is likely to be a thrust fault, where one block of rock is pushed up and over the other. This type of fault is common in areas where horizontal compression forces have folded the rock layers.
Is the fault older or younger the rock layer A Explain?
To determine whether the fault is older or younger than rock layer A, we can use the principle of cross-cutting relationships. If the fault cuts through rock layer A, it is younger than that layer, as it must have formed after the rock was deposited. Conversely, if rock layer A is found to be disrupted by the fault, then the fault is older. Therefore, examining the relationship between the fault and rock layer A is key to establishing their relative ages.
What kind of fault causes rock to move horizontally?
Generically a "fault" but there could also be an "earthquake" associated with this fracturing. A fault with where all the movement is horizontal is called a "transverse" fault. but it must be understood that there is a component of horizontal movement associated with Thrust, Reverse and Normal faults too.
