A window washer pulls a rubber squeegee down a very tall vertical window. The squeegee has mass 165 g and is mounted on the end of a light rod. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the squeegee and the dry glass is 0.710. The window washer presses it against the window with a force having a horizontal component of 5.00 N.

a. If she pulls the squeegee down the window at constant velocity, what vertical force component must she exert?
b. The window washer increases the downward force component by 40.0%, while all other forces remain the same. Find the squeegee's acceleration in this situation.
c. The squeegee is moved into a wet portion of the window, where its motion is resisted by a fluid drag force R proportional to its velocity according to R =-18v, where R is in newtons and v is in meters per second. Find the terminal velocity that the squeegee approaches, assuming the window washer exerts the same force described in part (b).

Electroplating is a way to coat a complex metal object with a very thin (and hence inexpensive) layer of a precious metal, such as silver or gold. in essence the metal object is made the cathode of an electrolytic cell in which the precious metal cations are dissolved in aqueous solution. suppose a current of 480.ma is passed through an electroplating cell with an aqueous solution of agno3 in the cathode compartment for 46.0 seconds. calculate the mass of pure silver deposited on a metal object made into the cathode of the cell. round your answer to 3 significant digits. also, be sure your answer contains a unit symbol. ×10μ
