Stress• There are three different kinds
of stress can occur in the crust- tension, compression, and shearing.
• These forces cause some rocks to become brittle and snap.
• Other rocks bend slowly like road tar softened by the sun.

Compression
• The stress force called compression squeezes rock until it folds or breaks
• One plate pushing against another can compress rock like a giant trash contractor.

Tension
• The stress force called tension pulls on the crust, stretching, rocks so that it becomes thinner in the middle
• The effect of tension on rock is somewhat like pulling apart a piece of warm bubblegum.

Shearing
• Stress that pushes a mass or rock in to opposite direction is called shearing
• Shearing can cause rock to break and slip apart or to change its shape.

Reverse Faults
• Reverse faults are in places where the rock of the crust is pushed together compression cause’s reverse faults to form
• A reverse fault has the same structure as a normal fault, but the blocks move in the opposite direction.

Strike-Strip Fault
• In places where plates move past each other shearing creates strike-slip faults
• In a strike-strip fault other rocks on either side of the fault slip past each other sideways with little up or down motion.

Normal Faults
• Is when tension in the crust pulls the rock apart causing normal faults
• Normal faults have a footwall and a hangwall most faults occur along boundaries.

Hang wall
• The hang wall is the block of rock that lies below the footwall like a fault
• A hang wall happens when they move away from each other

Anticline
• A fold in rock that bends upward into an arch.
• Like going up a mountain.

Footwall
• When movement occurs the normal fault move downwards .
• This happens when two pieces of earths crust are under tension.

Syncline
• A fold in rock that bends down to form a valley.
• Like going down a hill or valley.

Plateau
• Plateau is a large area of flat land elevated high above sea level.
• Flat land with mostly grass and few trees.
