Difference between Mantle (geology) and Outer core

Mantle (geology) vs. Outer core

The mantle is a layer inside a terrestrial planet and some other rocky planetary bodies. The outer core of the Earth is a fluid layer about thick and composed of mostly iron and nickel that lies above Earth's solid inner core and below its mantle.

Similarities between Mantle (geology) and Outer core

Mantle (geology) and Outer core have 8 things in common (in Unionpedia): Fluid, Iron, Nickel, Oxygen, S-wave, Seismology, Structure of the Earth, Viscosity.

Fluid

In physics, a fluid is a substance that continually deforms (flows) under an applied shear stress.

S-wave

In seismology, S-waves, secondary waves, or shear waves (sometimes called an elastic S-wave) are a type of elastic wave, and are one of the two main types of elastic body waves, so named because they move through the body of an object, unlike surface waves.

Seismology

Seismology (from Ancient Greek σεισμός (seismós) meaning "earthquake" and -λογία (-logía) meaning "study of") is the scientific study of earthquakes and the propagation of elastic waves through the Earth or through other planet-like bodies.

Structure of the Earth

The interior structure of the Earth is layered in spherical shells: an outer silicate solid crust, a highly viscous asthenosphere and mantle, a liquid outer core that is much less viscous than the mantle, and a solid inner core.

Viscosity

The viscosity of a fluid is the measure of its resistance to gradual deformation by shear stress or tensile stress.
