Final answer:

Normal faults move along a vertical plane due to tensional forces and are often found at divergent plate boundaries.


Explanation:

Normal faults move by a vertical motion where the hanging-wall moves downward relative to the footwall along the dip of the fault. These faults are caused by tensional forces in the crust and commonly occur at divergent plate boundaries. Some examples of normal faults include the Wasatch Fault and the Hurricane Fault.
