$A$ block placed on a rough horizontal surface is pulled by a horizontal force $F$. Let $f$ be the force applied by the rough surface on the block. Plot a graph of $f$ versus $F$.

As shown in the figure,a block of mass $\sqrt{3} \text{ kg}$ is kept on a horizontal rough surface with a coefficient of friction $\mu = \frac{1}{3 \sqrt{3}}$. $A$ force $F$ is applied on the vertical face of the block at an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. The minimum force $F$ required to just move the block is $3x$. Find the value of $3x$.
