$A$ uniform cube of side $a$ and mass $m$ rests on a rough horizontal table. $A$ horizontal force $F$ is applied normal to one of the faces at a point that is directly above the centre of the face,at a height $\frac{3a}{4}$ above the base. The minimum value of $F$ for which the cube begins to tilt about the edge is (Assume that the cube does not slide):

  • A
    $\frac{mg}{4}$
  • B
    $\frac{2mg}{3}$
  • C
    $\frac{3mg}{4}$
  • D
    $mg$
