What is the other name of outer core?
The other name for the outer core is the metallic outer core.
What are facts about the outer core?
The outer core is a layer of Earth that is composed mainly of liquid iron and nickel. It is about 2,200 kilometers thick and located beneath the mantle. The outer core is responsible for generating Earth's magnetic field through the movement of its metal materials.
How thick is the outer core in km?
the outer core is 2300 km thick the inner core on the other hand is 1200 km thick.
How is the inner core and outer core different from each other?
The outer core is liquid, the inner core is solid The outer core surrounds the inner core The outer core is iron-rich, the inner core is iron-rich and nickel-rich There is more pressure acting on the inner core The inner core is hotter
How much kilometers is between the inner core and the outer core?
1700 kilometre between it other
What is thicker inner or outer core?
The outer core is thicker than the inner core. The outer core is about 2,260 kilometers thick, while the inner core is approximately 1,220 kilometers thick.
Does the inter core have more pressure then the outer core?
Yes, Inter core has more pressure than outer core and that's why outer core is solid, because there is not enough pressure in outer core.
Can you describe Earth's outer core?
Earth's outer core is made up of iron mixed with smaller amounts of other materials. It is also a liquid.
Where the outer core is locate?
the outer core is located next to the innner core
Are the inner and outer core of earth the same?
No. The inner and outer core are both composed primarily of iron and nickel, but the outer core is liquid and surrounds the inner core. The inner core is the innermost layer of Earth and is kept solid by the enormous pressure.
Which layer of earth is made up of liquid metal?
the outer core
What is the difference between the mantle and outer core of the Earth?
There are differences in chemistry (the mantle is mainly ultramafic rock--the outer core is metallic), in phase (the mantle is predominately solid--the outer core is liquid), in depth (the outer core is closer to the center of the Earth), and in density (the outer core is more dense).
