A cubical box of side $a$ sitting on a rough table-top is pushed horizontally with a gradually increasing force until the box moves. If the force is applied at a height from the table top which is greater than a critical height $H$, the box topples first. If it is applied at a height less than $H$, the box starts sliding first. Then, the coefficient of friction between the box and the table top is
