does a rift decrease? not sure transform fault stays the same right?

Answer 1

transform fault stays the same in the sense that they do not depart or collide into each other. but they do move along side each other. ex. you have a friend across the street from you and had a earthquake (transform fault) directly through the street. your friend will be across the street and a few houses down.
conversion fault
<> they go into each other
Diversion fault (think of diving away) like you dive into the pool
> < they seperate
Transforme
the slide along side eachother
