What is the maximum acceleration of a train such that a $50 \ kg$ box lying on its floor remains stationary (in $m \ s^{-2}$)? (Given: Coefficient of static friction between the box and the train's floor is $0.3$ and $g = 10 \ m \ s^{-2}$)

$A$ horizontal force just sufficient to move a body of mass $4 \,kg$ lying on a rough horizontal surface is applied on it. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction are $0.8$ and $0.6$ respectively. If the force continues to act even after the body has started moving, the acceleration of the body is (take $g=10 \,ms^{-2}$). (in $\,ms^{-2}$)
