How compression forces make rockes move along a reverse fault?

Trust faults typically have low dip angles. A high-angle thrust fault is called a reverse fault. A reverse fault occurs primarily across lithological units where as a thrust usually occurs within or at a low angle to lithological units.

During fault in transmission line what will be the power factor?

It depends on the nature of the transmission line mostly under a fault it is the inductance that will be limiting the fault current so your power factor would be quite low. The exact number would change from line to line. During a fault (say three phase fault for simplicity), the power factor will drop to the line angle (assume no, or very little fault resistance). On EHV systems, this is in the 80 - 88 degree range (typically). On VHV, it is often in the 70-80 degree range. A line angle of 90 degrees is a pf of 0, so to convert between this line angle and power factor: pf = cos (line angle). As voltage gets lower, the assumption of no fault resistance becomes less valid, and the line angle becomes less (increased power factor). The lowest VHV line angle I've seen is in the 60-70 degree range. I've seen 40-60 on HV, and as low as 30 degrees (.86 pf) on underground cabling.
