As the block is placed on a rough surface there will act static friction on it will attain its maximum value. After that the block will start to slide on the surface with acceleration increasing with time.

1) the equation for the block when it is static \ \left(i.e \ t \leq \frac{\mu m g}{k}\right)

\begin{aligned} &k t=f s\\ &a=0 \end{aligned}

2) After it starts sliding  \left(i.e \ \ \ t>\frac{\mu m g}{k}\right)

\begin{aligned} &k t-\mu m g=a\\ &\frac{d a}{d t}=k \end{aligned}

Option 2 is correct.
