    Shear modulus also known as Modulus of rigidity is the measure of the rigidity of the body, given by the ratio of shear stress to shear strain. Often denoted by G sometimes by S or μ. In outer core its value is zero as it's a fluid so on fluid we can't apply shear stress. In innercore it's like 1.4 N/m2
