2 A particle is projected from a point on horizontal ground with speed \(15 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\) at an angle of \(\theta ^ { \circ }\) above the horizontal. The particle strikes the ground 2 s after projection.

1. Find \(\theta\).

2. Calculate the time after projection at which the direction of motion of the particle is \(20 ^ { \circ }\) below the horizontal.
