Answer

$w_0=-2\sqrt 2+2\sqrt 2i$ $w_1=2\sqrt 2-2\sqrt 2i$

Work Step by Step

$r=|z|=16$ $θ=\frac{3\pi}{2}~~$ (Negative imaginary axis) Polar form: $z=-16i=16(cos~\frac{3\pi}{2}+i~sin~\frac{3\pi}{2})$ $w_k=\sqrt {16}[cos(\frac{\frac{3\pi}{2}+2k\pi}{2})+i~sin(\frac{\frac{3\pi}{2}+2k\pi}{2})]$ $w_0=4(cos~\frac{3\pi}{4}+i~sin~\frac{3\pi}{4})=-2\sqrt 2+2\sqrt 2i$ $w_1=4(cos~\frac{7\pi}{4}+i~sin~\frac{7\pi}{4})=2\sqrt 2-2\sqrt 2i$
