An earthquake occurs immediately beneath the Moho where the p-wave velocity is 8000 m/s. A p-wave from the the earthquake propagates into the earth and eventually hits the 660 km discontinuity at an angle that causes it to refract at 90 degress.
1) at what angle was this ray traveling when it originally left the source?
