A block \(A\) with mass \(100~\text{kg}\) is resting on another block \(B\) of mass \(200~\text{kg}\). As shown in figure a horizontal rope tied to a wall holds it. The coefficient of friction between \(A\) and \(B\) is \(0.2\) while coefficient of friction between \(B\) and the ground is \(0.3\). The minimum required force \(F\) to start moving \(B\) will be: 

                   
1. \(900~\text{N}\)
2. \(100~\text{N}\)
3. \(1100~\text{N}\)
4. \(1200~\text{N}\)
