A block of mass \(5.0\ \text{kg}\) rests on a rough inclined plane that makes an angle of \(30^{\circ}\) with the horizontal. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the block and the plane are \(\mu_s = 0.40\) and \(\mu_k = 0.30\) respectively. The block is attached by a light string over a smooth pulley at the top of the incline to a hanging mass \(M\). Determine the minimum value of \(M\) (in kilograms, to two significant figures) required to start moving the block up the incline.
