Question

This question has 5 parts. This is part 5. A ball is thrown horizontally from the top of a 60.0-m building and lands 100.0 m from the base of the building. Ignore air resistance. (d) What is the direction of the velocity of the ball just before it hits the ground? (in degrees/deg below the x-axis)
