Answer:
105 degree
Explanation:
- The seismic shadow zones are areas on the surface of the earth where seismographs do not record any seismic wave created due to an earthquake activty.
- Both P and S waves are radiated from the epicenter in all the directions but due to the liquid state of the earth out, S waves do not propogaes beyond an angular distance of 104 degrees. This phenomenon creates a shadow zone of S-wave on the seismographs.
- For P wave the shadow zones ranges from 104 degrees to 143 degrees.
