    As shown in the figure, a block of mass $\sqrt{3}\, kg$ is kept on a horizontal rough surface of coefficient of friction $\frac{1}{3 \sqrt{3}}$. The critical force to be applied on the vertical surface as shown at an angle $60^{\circ}$ with horizontal such that it does not move, will be $3 x$. The value of $3x$ will be

    $\left[ g =10 m / s ^{2} ; \sin 60^{\circ}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} ; \cos 60^{\circ}=\frac{1}{2}\right]$
