System B: Dynamics of a Medieval Catapult A catapult is a ballistic device used to launch a projectile over large distances without the aid of explosives. Examples include the Trebuchet shown here. Questions to consider Mechanically speaking, how were catapults designed to transfer forces and mechanical energy to a projectile? » How were the speed and angle for which the projectile was launched controlled and determined H. based on a desired target?
