6 A particle \(P\) of mass 4 kg is attached to one end of a light inextensible string of length 0.8 m . The other end of the string is attached to a fixed point \(O . P\) is at rest vertically below \(O\) when it experiences a horizontal impulse of magnitude 20 Ns . In the subsequent motion the angle the string makes with the downwards vertical through \(O\) is denoted by \(\theta\) (see diagram).

- Find the magnitude of the acceleration of \(P\) at the first instant when \(\theta = \frac { 1 } { 3 } \pi\) radians.
- Determine the value of \(\theta\) at which the string first becomes slack.
