It’s all about relative motion. Many faults are moving along a similar azimuth with differences in velocity creating the relative motion that causes the faulting

Congratulations on 2mil man! I’ve always loved your normal style teaching videos but the debunking videos are so damn funny.

My Transcript notes of the video
00:00
we just learned about the different types of rock deformation but there are two very important structures pertaining to this concept that must be discussed
00:15
in detail those being faults and folds faulting is the main type of brittle deformation in rocks faults are classified based on the type of deformation that creates them normal faults are caused by extension
00:30
reverse faults by compression and strike slip or transverse faults by shearing normal and reverse faults are called dip slip faults because fault motion or slip is parallel to the false dip this is in contrast with strike slip
00:49
faults where slip is perpendicular to the dip in geology dip refers to the direction that the fault plane is inclined to conceptualize this imagine that you pour a cup of water onto an inclined
01:04
surface the direction that the water flows is the dip which has two components an azimuth representing a horizontal direction and an angle representing the steepness of the plane
01:18
in any dip slip fault there is a hanging wall and a foot wall if you imagine drilling a tunnel longitudinally through the fault when standing in this tunnel you would be standing on the foot wall and the hanging wall would be above you
01:33
in reverse faults the hanging wall moves upward and in normal faults it moves downward reverse faults primarily form in areas where the tectonic plates are converging like along subduction zones and
01:47
continent continent collisions there are also areas where the plates are converging at an angle these transpressional faults experience both reverse and strike slip faulting a fault with both dip slip and strike
02:03
slip motion is called an oblique fault an example of this is the san andreas fault here the pacific and north american plates are converging at about a 10 degree angle
02:16
though predominantly a strike-slip fault it is also slightly compressional as is evidenced by the coastal mountain ranges of california normal faults are most common where the plates are moving apart and the crust is
02:31
being stretched this is currently occurring in east africa the basin and range province of north america and at the center of every ocean basin in the world as the crust thins during extension its
02:44
weight above the underlying mantle is reduced and spread out over a larger surface area this causes the crust to bob up in a process called isostatic adjustment or more specifically isostatic rebound
03:01
it's like walking off a boat when your weight is removed the boat bobs upward and rises in the water get back in and the boat bobs down in response to your weight back to the geological case the crust is
03:15
analogous to the boat and the mantle is analogous to the water with the crust bobbing up and down in response to the thickening and thinning of the crust the same thing occurs in areas that are experiencing compression the
03:29
compressional forces thicken and shorten the crust causing subsidence because the now heavier crust will sink into the mantle this is what leads to the development of four land basins or large areas of
03:43
depressed land located adjacent to large mountain ranges the weight of the mountain pushes the crust down into the mantle not only beneath it but also adjacent to it and it is these adjacent lowlands that sink
03:58
below sea level during isostatic adjustment which in this case is called subsidence basin subsidence is what makes the formation of ultra thick sedimentary deposits possible
04:12
for example as much as 10 000 feet of sediment accumulated in the catskill four land basin over a period of only about 20 million years during the upper devonian period this sediment was shed from the now
04:26
eroded acadian mountains that existed along the eastern seaboard subsiding forland basins like this have fostered deposition of some of the largest sedimentary formations in the world
04:39
in some areas compressional forces cause rocks to become folded like a car that gets crumpled during an accident folding occurs when a rock is being compressed and the temperature and pressure are just high enough for plastic deformation
04:53
to occur folds are classified based on their geometry and stratigraphy or arrangement of strata folds that are concave up are called sin forms and folds that are concave down
05:08
are called anti-forms when layered rocks are folded into a sin form the youngest rocks will usually be at the hinge of the fold which is similar to the local maximum or minimum of a parabolic function

8:57 -> 8:38
Do a video about what you think about free will! Would be very interesting
well, asuming he blocked comments about topics he is wrong about, he is clearly not supporting that.
What topics are you referring to?
It's pretty much subjective philosophical argument. But I believe average scientists agree with determinism. As well as predicted chaos.
Im not really sure if I agree that it is subjective philosophy. I think determinism (with the exception of quantum randomness) can be proven beyond reasonable doubt, at least to some extent

Rest of videos in this playlist are hidden. I can’t watch them
What about when the two pieces are in a fault where they’re moving in the same direction, but one is moving faster than the other?
It’s all about relative motion. Many faults are moving along a similar azimuth with differences in velocity creating the relative motion that causes the faulting
Like all motion, it is always relative to a point of observation. In structural geology, it is assumed to be wrt the other side of the structure.

@@9fmradisapratama the Satellite?
Oops. Apologizes. I thought you meant that channel named Gaia. If you're unfamiliar, there's a video called "Galaxy brain garbage of Gaia".
@@9fmradisapratama is it about the Channel or Satellite?
A channel. Not satellite.
Why does the tectonic plates keep moving? Why they haven't reached an equilibrium state after billions of years of earth formation?
So long as the earth has an active, heated core it will continue to shift.
convection currents keep moving them. convenction currents are from earths core. earths core is still hot. hot means to move
It’s actually mainly radioactive heat within the mantle that powers plate tectonics, about 70%, compared to 30% for primordial heat.
