Momentum of a laser pulse

Q- A pulsed laser fires a 1000-MW pulse horizontally at a 10mg mass suspended vertically from a 4 cm long fiber of negligible mass. If the pulse lasts duration of 200 nanoseconds, and the radiation is completely absorbed by the mass, by what maximum angle is the pendulum deflected?
