Catapult can work in different ways. The most common catapult we think of to day is the steam catapult used on aircraft carriers. The steam isallowed to build up pressure and released when the pressure is high enough to move the weight of the plane. This pressure release pushes on a piston much like a cars. that piston is pushed down a shaft till the end of that shaft. the counter reaction is the plane moving in the other direction. Newtons law works once again.

What type of energy is a stretched catapult?
The kind of potential energy in a catapult is known as elastic potential energy. The potential energy that is in the catapult is used when you activate the catapult and the rock (or any kind of ammo) fires.
what type of energy does catapult use?
kenetic energy
In any energy transformation energy is?
In any energy transformation energy is preserved.
What are the energy changes in a catapult?
kinetic energy to gravitational potential energy
A change in energy from one form to another is?
A change from one form of energy into another is called energy transformation.

Definition of energy transformation?
Energy Transformation is when energy changes from one form to another. :)
What energy transformation do muscles perform?
hi muscles perform Potential->Kinetic->heat potential- energy that can be used and is stored for use kinetic - movement heat- a prime factor of any kinetic relative glad to help Jordan
A change in energy from one form to another is?
A change from one form of energy into another is called energy transformation.
What energy transformation examples?
Energy transformation from a nuclear power plant
The process of changing energy from one form to another is called energy?
Energy transformation
