How does a rock move on a normal fault?

A normal fault is a product of tension so the hanging wall of the fault slides down the footwall. If you look into the fault plane, and it slopes from lower left to top right, the (over)hanging wall is on the left and you will see its younger rocks have slid down to meet older ones on the footwall opposite.
