The coefficient of static friction between the block and the table is 0.8 (the same in all directions).

A force F1 = 6 Newtons is applied to the block (yellow arrow).

A force F2 (blue arrow) is then slowly applied in the direction shown. At what magnitude of F2 does the block begin to slide?
Can you list the plane on which the block rests, as well as the direction of the gravitational force?
