Plate Tectonic Notes

Plate Tectonic Notes. Stress is the amount of force per unit area put on a given object. Deformation is the rock changing due to stress. * Three things determine how much stress a rock can handle: composition, temperature and amount of pressure. Types of Stress:.

Earthquakes and Faults

Earthquakes and Faults. 1. Faults. A fault is a break or fracture between two blocks of rocks in response to stress. Three types of stresses produce faults Tension Compression Shear One block has moved relative to the other block.

Types of Faults

Types of Faults. Strike Slip Fault: Two layers of rock are shifted horizontally or parallel to the fault plane. . 1) "Hanging Wall "- The surface of block that is ontop of the plane of the fault. 2) "Footwall" - The surface or block that lies below the plane of the fault.
