Which of the following describes a fault?
An energy released from the inside of the Earth.
A movement in the Earth’s crust.
A break in the Earth’s crust.
A rock layer.
What occurs when faults move?
volcanic eruption
earthquake
landslide
drought
Why is it that not all movements along faults produce earthquakes?
It is because the energy of the Earth that causes the rocks to move is very strong enough.
It is because the friction between rocks was not overcome by the energy of the Earth.
It is because there is no friction present between the rocks.
It is because the layers of rocks were not broken.
Fault movement is always associated with earthquakes. Arrange the following events how fault movements generate earthquakes. I. Once friction is overcome, the rocks suddenly slip. II. Ground suddenly moves and an earthquake occurs. III. Energy from inside the Earth is necessary to make the ground move. IV. The rocks are stuck together due to friction.
I, II, III, IV
II, IV, I, III
III, IV, I, II
IV, II, I, III
How do faults produce earthquakes?
Energy from inside the Earth makes the ground move, once friction is overcome, a fault slips producing an earthquake.
Rock materials from underneath go out along faults produces earthquakes
Magma spreads beneath the rock layers producing faults.
Tectonic plates collide producing earthquakes.
Which of the following describes a normal fault?
both blocks slide past another

strike-slip fault
reverse fault
normal fault
landslide
Which of the following types of faults is shown in the picture?
strike-slip fault
reverse fault
normal fault
lateral fault
Which of the following DOES NOT show fault movement?
In which direction the block of rock layer will move if it shows reverse fault?
upward
to the left
to the right
downward
How can you relate fault movements with earthquakes?
Every time there is an earthquake this all due to fault movements.
Every time there is an earthquake, rock layers move causing faults to move as well.
Every time fault moves and friction between rocks is overcome this will result in an earthquake.
Every time fault moves even though friction between rocks has not overcome, this will result in an earthquake.
Why do earthquakes occur?
The crust suddenly moves as Earth rotates around its axis.
The Earth is attracted by a nearby planet
The Earth is suddenly hit by a meteor.
The fault suddenly moves.
Which of the following could be the effect on the things above the Earth’s surface when faults move?
trees will grow taller
soil becomes thicker
sea water level rises
soil cracks
