Answer:
1.)normal-fault, thrust-fault and overthrust fault
In this page you can discover 3 synonyms, antonyms, idiomatic expressions, and related words for reverse-fault, like: normal-fault, thrust-fault and overthrust fault.
2.)Earthquakes
Earthquakes are vibrations of the Earth produced by the release of energy during a sudden rupture of the Earth.
3.)The friction across the surface of the fault
Stresses in the earth's outer layer push the sides of the fault together. The friction across the surface of the fault holds the rocks together so they do not slip immediately when pushed sideways.
4.)The Basin and Range Province
Two blocks of crust pull apart, stretching the crust into a valley. The Basin and Range Province in North America and the East African Rift Zone are two well-known regions where normal faults are spreading apart Earth's crust. Reverse faults, also called thrust faults, slide one block of crust on top of another.
5.)Faults
Most natural earthquakes are caused by sudden slippage along a fault. Faults occur when brittle rocks fracture and there is displacement of one side of the fracture relative to the other side.
6.)right-lateral or left-lateral
Faults which move along the direction of the dip plane are dip-slip faults and described as either normal or reverse (thrust), depending on their motion. Faults which move horizontally are known as strike-slip faults and are classified as either right-lateral or left-lateral.
