The maximum value of the applied force $F$ such that the block as shown in the arrangement does not move is (Acceleration due to gravity, $g=10 \,ms^{-2}$) (in $\,N$)

$A$ body of mass $10 \ kg$ slides along a rough horizontal surface. The coefficient of friction is $1/\sqrt{3}$. Taking $g = 10 \ m/s^2$,the least force which acts at an angle of $30^\circ$ to the horizontal is ...... $N$.

$A$ horizontal force just sufficient to move a body of mass $4 \,kg$ lying on a rough horizontal surface is applied on it. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction are $0.8$ and $0.6$ respectively. If the force continues to act even after the body has started moving, the acceleration of the body is (take $g=10 \,ms^{-2}$). (in $\,ms^{-2}$)

$A$ block of mass $M$ rests on a rough horizontal table. $A$ steadily increasing horizontal force is applied such that the block starts to slide on the table without toppling. The force is continued even after sliding has started. Assume the coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the table and the block to be equal. The correct representation of the variation of the frictional force $f$,exerted by the table on the block with time $t$ is given by
