Two blocks $A$ and $B$ of masses $5 \,kg$ and $3 \,kg$ respectively rest on a smooth horizontal surface with $B$ over $A$. The coefficient of friction between $A$ and $B$ is $0.5$. The maximum horizontal force (in $kg$ wt.) that can be applied to $A$, so that there will be motion of $A$ and $B$ without relative slipping, is
