TITLE: MAKING MODELS OF FAULTS

PROBLEM

How do rocks that move along a fault change the land surface?

MATERIALS:

2 wooden blocks, clay, millimeter ruler and pencil

PROCEDURE:

1. Place the wooden blocks next to each other on a table with the longest sides touching. Imagine
that the blocks are rocks along a fault in the Earth’s Crust.
2. Press the clay to make a sheet that is about 3 mm thick. Put the thin sheet of clay on the top of
the blocks. Press the clay down firmly. Imagine that the clay is the Earth’s surface.
3. Use pencil to make a straight line from the side of one block. This line is a road.
4. Press down the clay and rocks. Move the rocks very slowly past each other by pressing one of
the blocks forward about 3 cm. the blocks should be touching at all times. Record in the chart
what happened to the surface of the Earth.
5. Return the blocks to their original position and press the clay into a flat sheet again. Repeat
procedure 4 but this time move the blocks very quickly. Record what happened to the surface
of the Earth.

OBSERVATIONS

1. Record the results in this chart.
