A uniform ladder 5 m long and weighing 80 N leans against a smooth vertical wall, making an angle \(\theta\) with the ground. The foot of the ladder rests on rough ground with coefficient of static friction \(\mu=0.3\). A horizontal force of 30 N is applied at the ladder's midpoint, pushing it towards the wall. Determine the smallest angle \(\theta\) (in degrees, to the nearest whole degree) for which the ladder will not slip.
