Find the direction of motion of the two snowballs just before they land with degrees below the horizontal. My answer is -90° and -38.7°, but I'm told that this is incorrect and to check my signs. Changing the signs still results in an incorrect answer.
![Snowballs are thrown with a speed of 19 m/s from a
roof 5.0 m above the ground. Snowball A is thrown
straight downward; snowball B is thrown in a direction
15° above the horizontal.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F0ab61452-dd62-4664-9725-98e21462897e%2Fc44d0c8d-35a5-4642-bbff-e444b1b006f4%2Fkll5a7f_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
