The frictional forces (including air resistance) always point to the direction which is opposite to the movement of an object. If the object is not moving and the frictional force corresponds to a static friction, then it points to the opposite direction of the applied force.

From the diagram, if we assume that the object is not moving, then the arrow that points towards the right corresponds to the applied force.

Therefore, the answer is:


\text{Applied Force}
