Problem
A simple pendulum consists of a bob of mass m=1 kg and a light string of length L=1 m. It is initially at rest in the vertical equilibrium position. A constant horizontal force F=10 N is suddenly applied to the bob. Taking standard gravity as g=10 m/s2, find the maximum angular deflection of the string from the vertical in degrees. *(Answer as an integer).*
