If the same mass is placed on the same horizontal surface


A mass of 9 kg lies on a horizontal surface with friction. The coefficient of static friction is 1.38. One force is applied to it in the -y direction as well. On earth, it requires some force applied in the +x direction to begin to move the mass. On some other planet where the mass of the planet is a factor of 10.5 larger than the mass of the earth and the radius of the planet is a factor of 2.4 larger than the radius of the earth, if the same mass is placed on the same horizontal surface with the same force pushing it down in the -y direction, how much more force is required to begin to move the mass in Newtons?
