Answer:

10 gram gold is added

Explanation:

given data

pure gold = (24/24)

added = 15 grams

gold = 14 K ( 14/24)

gold = 18 K ( 18/24)

to find out

How much pure gold added

solution

we know here that when we add gold to get 20 K gold or 22K

so we added here 15 gram 14 K

we consider here m is pure gold added

so by composition here

we get

15 (14K) + m ( 24 K) = ( 15 + m ) (18) ...................1

solve it and find m

m = 10

so 10 gram gold is added

Answer:

The speed of the catapult arm needs to be increased.

Explanation:

If the height needs to stay the same, they can not change the length of the catapult arm because this is the variable that determines the height of the thrown object. To change the horizontal distance the object travels, in other words the object's speed, the rope or counterweigth that pulls the catapult arm can be changed to increase the speed that the object is thrown.
