Block A of mass 4 kg and block B of mass 6 kg are resting on a horizontal surface as shown in the figure. There is no friction between the block B and the horizontal surface. The coefficient of friction between the blocks is 0.2. If the value of g=10 m s-2, the maximum horizontal force F that can be applied on the block B without any relative motion between A and B is
