What else can I help you with?
Which type of fault is the result of tension and why?
Normal Fault
What fault is caused by tension forces?
A normal fault.
What is a fault formed due to tension on rocks called?
It is called a normal fault.
What kind of fault moves because it is under compression?
A reverse fault moves because it is under compression. In a reverse fault, the hanging wall moves up relative to the footwall due to compressional forces in the Earth's crust. This type of fault is associated with convergent plate boundaries where tectonic plates collide.
What type of fault is rose canyon fault?
It is a strike-slip fault.
What type of fault move because its under tension?
Normal faults
Which type of fault is under tension?
Normal Thrust
What type of fault moves because it is under tension?
A normal fault moves because of tension. In this type of fault, the hanging wall moves down relative to the footwall due to the stretching and pulling apart of the Earth's crust.
Which type of fault is the result of tension and why?
Normal Fault
What kind of fault moves because it is under tension?
A normal fault moves because it is under tension. In a normal fault, the hanging wall moves down relative to the footwall due to the pulling apart of the Earth's crust, creating space and tension that cause the fault to move.
Type of fault that may form when rocks are pulled apart due to tension?
Rocks being pulled apart are under tension. This is found at divergent plate boundaries. It is a tension fault.
What does a tension fault do?
A tension fault occurs when there is stretching or pulling apart of the Earth's crust, which can lead to earthquakes as the rock breaks under the stress. This type of fault is associated with tectonic plate movements and occurs along divergent plate boundaries.
What fault moves because it under tension?
normal
What fault moves because it is under tension.?
normal
What type of fault is tension associated with hanging wall?
the upper wall of an inclined fault
What type of fault usually occurs because tension?
normal
Which type of fault is the result of tension forces?
A normal fault.
