Explanation:

A fault is a product of brittle deformation in  which a displacement occurs within the earth.

A normal and reverse fault both have an hanging wall and a foot wall.

  • In a normal fault, the footwall moves upward and the hanging wall moves downward thereby causing extension.
  • In a reverse fault, the footwall moves downward and the hanging wall moves upward thereby causing shortening.
  • The footwall is the block on a side of the fault surface where a miner can stand whereas the hanging wall is the block on the other side.
