The time required for the moon to orbit around the earth is slightly longer than the earth rotation on its axis. The moon rotates in the same direction that the earth rotates on its axis. Thus, the moon's full rotation requires another 50min or 25 minutes per crossing of the earth's meridian.
Earth's inner core is solid even though the temperature is so high because the pressure is also very high.

Normal fault - a dip-slip fault in which the block above the fault has moved downward relative to the block below. This type of faulting occurs in response to extension and is often observed in the Western United States Basin and Range Province and along oceanic ridge systems.

thrust fault - a dip-slip fault in which the upper block, above the fault plane, moves up and over the lower block. This type of faulting is common in areas of compression, such as regions where one plate is being subducted under another as in Japan. When the dip angle is shallow, a reverse fault is often described as a thrust fault.

strike-slip fault - a fault on which the two blocks slide past one another. The San Andreas Fault is an example of a right lateral fault.
Strike-slip Fault Animation
A left-lateral strike-slip fault is one on which the displacement of the far block is to the left when viewed from either side.
A right-lateral strike-slip fault is one on which the displacement of the far block is to the right when viewed from either side.

Explanation:
A region that is administered by the United States government is an example of a political region.
