Faulting in the Earth: Transcript


1 Geometrically angles or vectors describe the fault orientation and slip direction 2 Graphically focal mechanisms describe two possible fault orientations and slip directions. Chapter 6. Folding. Faulting. The buckling of a rock layer that was once horizontal. Buckles or folds appear on the landscape.. The main type of folds are:. Anticlines. Synclines. Faulting is the result of the movement of the earths plates. Faults occur where there is stress along a weak point in the earths crust.. What is a Fold?. A fold is a bent rock layer or series of layers that were originally horizontal and subsequently deformed.. Due to compression forces.. They are most visible in rocks that have layers.. Lithosphere. Earth’s Systems (spheres) . Lithosphere - . Earth’s crust and upper . mantle. Atmosphere - . Layers of gases surrounding . Earth . Standard. . S6E5. Students will investigate the scientific view of how the earth’s surface is formed. . a. Compare and contrast the Earth’s crust, mantle, and core including temperature, density, and composition. . Key terms:. Solstice: day when the sun appears farthest North or South of the equator. Northern hemisphere receives the most sunlight of the year around June 21 on the summer solstice..

How are layers of the Earth different from one another?. Standard:. S6E5a. Compare and contrast the Earth’s crust, mantle, and core including temperature, density, and composition.. Faults form in rocks when the stresses overcome the internal strength of the rock resulting in a fracture. A fault can be defined as the displacement of once connected blocks of rock along a fault plane. This can occur in any direction with the blocks moving away from each other. Faults occur from both tensional and compressional forces. La gamme de thé MORPHEE vise toute générations recherchant le sommeil paisible tant désiré et non procuré par tout types de médicaments. Essentiellement composé de feuille de morphine, ce thé vous assurera d’un rétablissement digne d’un voyage sur . Types of Stress:. Tension. . Stress that pulls rock apart.
