$A$ plank is moving in a horizontal direction with a constant acceleration $a \hat{i}$. $A$ uniform rough cubical block of side $l$ rests on the plank and is at rest relative to the plank. Let the centre of mass of the block be at $(0, l/2)$ at a given instant. If $a = g/10$,then the normal reaction exerted by the plank on the block at that instant acts at
