The distance travelled by the ping pong ball would depend on factors such as the force applied by the catapualt, the angle of launch, wind speed, and direction, etc.

A Bridge Too Far was released on 06/15/1977.
To determine how far the car fell vertically from the bridge to the ground you would need to know how far the bridge roadway is from the ground.
The Challenger was 74 seconds in-flight when it exploded.
about 3.5 kilometers
No. Pegasus Bridge figured in the D-day actions (Normandy). A Bridge Too Far was about the destructive and essentially losing campaign of Arnhem, in the Netherlands.
A catapult launches an object far by converting potential energy into kinetic energy. When the tension is released, the stored potential energy is transferred to the object, propelling it forward. Factors like the tension in the catapult's arm, the angle of launch, and the weight of the projectile all contribute to how far the object will be launched. Additionally, reducing air resistance and optimizing the design of the catapult can also help increase the launch distance.

Pretty Far
As far as we know, it didn't. But if you can launch something harmless into orbit, you can also launch something dangerous into orbit, which was a big part of the fear caused by the Sputnik launch.
