The maximum force of static friction is the product of normal force (P) and the coefficient of static friction (c). In a flat surface, normal force is equal to the weight (W) of the body. 
 
                        P = W = mass x acceleration due to gravity
    
                    P = (0.3 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 2.94 kg m/s² = 2.94 N

Solving for the static friction force (F), 
                                              F = P x c 
 
                                      F = (2.94 N) x 0.6 = 1.794 N

Therefore, the maximum force of static friction is 1.794 N.
