Tension forces are two forces acting on one object, moving in opposite directions (away from one another) to stretch the object. Compression forces are two forces acting on one object, moving in opposite directions (towards one another) to compress or deform the object.
Greater force
both directions opposite each other At any little fiber at any point in the string, if the forces in both directions were not equal, then that little fiber would be accelerated in the direction of the greater force.
A normal fault moves because it is under tension.
