Newton's first law is when then load sits in the catapult until the catapult is launched and then it moves. The second law is when the catapult output is given in the amount of force depending on how far the bucket is pulled back. The third law is the catapult will experience exactly the same force as the thrown object but in the opposite direction.
The catapults works by applying pressure to draw the item away from the target so that when it is released the item flows with extreme speed and pressure.

No, it doesnot
The catapult is a simple machine. The work input is the restraining of the payload and pressure put on the spring or lever. The work output is the delivery of the payload with the energy of the work transferred to it.
Catapults work like third class levers. The base acts as the fulcrum on which the catapult arm pivots. Force is provided by rubber bands attached to the crossbar of the catapult. The rubber bands tighten when the arm is pulled back, so when the arm is released, it is propelled forward until it hits the crossbar. The object being launched is then propelled forward into the air.
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. MKS
questioning the principles of scientific method
Because the catapult is effective.
Another work for catapult is trebuchet.
a catapult yes. a trebuchet no
Frederick Taylor
Yes, it is a catapult. Just like a mangonel but not a trebuchet.
They work as a catapult.
Engineers apply the principles of science and mathematics to develop economical solutions to technical problems. Their work is the link between scientific discoveries and the commercial applications that meet societal and consumer needs.

its very easy just work it out ur own
