The small ball of mass m and its supporting wire become a simple pendulum when the horizontal cord is severed. the ratio k is defined as ratio of the tension T in the supporting wire immediately after the cord is cut to that in the wire before the cord is cut. Determine the angular position θ where the ratio k becomes 1/2. Enter an answer in degrees up to the first decimal place.
