How to divide screen between two activities, to show a menu?

Question

I am trying to simulate an effect that I was seeing in some apps lately. Imagine a regular activity A, but when the user presses a button, for example a new activity B comes in from the left, moving A to the right. It fills all height, but 90% of the width.

So in the screen we have in the 90%, starting from left, activity B, and in the last 10% of the screen we have the first 10% of A.

This is useful to show a menu for example. How can it be done?

Are those different activities or it is made with a ViewFlipper or something like that? I can't find this exact example, but I can see it in many apps.
