In order for the block to move the force applied has to be greater than the maximum force of static friction.

F > fs

fs = coefficient of friction * normal force

= .65 * 36N // you can use the weight for the normal force since the block is being supported

= 23.4N

Since applied force of 42N is greater than the 23.4N due to friction, the block will start sliding, where kinetic friction will act on the block.

To determine if the block will move under the applied force, we need to compare the applied force to the maximum static friction force. The maximum static friction force is given by the coefficient of static friction (0.65) multiplied by the normal force (weight of the block, 36.0 N). ( 0.65 \times 36.0 = 23.4 , N ). Since the applied force (42 N) is greater than the maximum static friction force, the block will move.

because in fractal coding you save Coefficients of image blocks instead of values of block pixels. decoding starts from initial image and Coefficients applied on it. so the initial image can have any resolution

Three blocks that are connected by massless strings are pulled along a frictionless surface by a horizontal force?

The blocks will accelerate together due to the force applied and the absence of friction. The acceleration of the system will depend on the net force acting on it, which is equal to the applied force minus the tension in the strings. The relationship between the masses and the tension in the strings can be determined using Newton's second law.
