What is the difference between folding and faulting? (1) Folding is the wrinkling of the earth's surface from slow lateral compression (2) Faulting is the rupture or breaking of the earth's surface from faster process. Name and define the two types of weathering. (1) Physical (Mechanical) weathering - disintegrates rocks without altering the chemical composition
The fault plane is where the action is. It is a flat surface that may be vertical or sloping. The line it makes on the Earth's surface is the fault trace. Where the fault plane is sloping, as with normal and reverse faults, the upper side is the hanging wall and the lower side is the footwall. When the fault plane is vertical, there is no hanging wall or footwall. Any fault plane can be completely described with two measurements: its strike and its dip.
