I'm assuming there is a friction (coefficient u) between the block and the table and no friction on the string. The block will move when:

W(ball)=uW(block) where:

W(ball)- weight of the ball
W(block) - weight of the block
u - coefficient of friction

So what's the question?

I assume the ball hanges from a pulley and the other end of the string is on the block on a horizontal table. OK.

At the verge of slippage:
Gravity on the ball = mball g
= max friction on the block = mblock * g * mu

Solve for whatever you want.
mball = mblock * mu
