Fault hanging wall moves downward.
Occurs when the hanging wall moves down relative to the foot wall reverse fault.
In a strike slip fault they slide past each other the foot wall and hanging wall are not there because it has.
This type of faulting occurs in response to extension.
A dip slip fault in which the block above the fault has moved downward relative to the block below.
A dip slip fault in which the upper block above the fault plane moves up and over the.
Low angle normal faults with regional tectonic significance may be designated detachment faults.
But that is when the foot wall moves down the hanging wall moves up.
To the dip is called dip slip faulting.
The hanging wall moves down relative to the foot wall.
Strike slip faults are right lateral or left lateral depending on whether the block on the opposite side of the fault from an observer has moved to the right or left.
Special type of reverse fault that is nearly horizontal angle has less than 45 degrees.
Rocks are stretched away from each other reverse fault.
An upthrown block between two normal faults dipping away from each other is a horst.
A reverse fault is when the hanging wall moves upward caused by compression.
In a reverse fault the hanging wall does not move while the footwall moves down.
Formed by compressional stress rocks are pushed towards each other thrust fault.
Which fault will see the hanging wall move down relative to the footwall.
A normal fault is when the hanging wall moves downward caused by tension.
In a reverse fault the hanging wall moves down and the footwall moves up.
What kind of fault is visible in figure 1.
Compression faults combine elements of strike slip and dip slip motions.
So there you have it.
In a strike slip fault they slide past each other the foot wall and hanging wall are not there because it has.
The hanging wall moves up relative to the foot wall.
In a normal fault the hanging wall moves downward relative to the footwall.
In a reverse fault the footwall does not move while the hanging wall moves down.
But that is when the foot wall moves down the hanging wall moves up.
