Does a 10lb catapult launch further than a 3lb one?

Usually yes...but it depends on the angle of trajectory, weight and aerodynamics of the thing being catapulted, the length of the "arm" of the catapult, and the amount of force that the catapult is set to hurl the object. Example: a feather on the 10lb catapult which is set at a high trajectory and a low force will go almost nowhere while a stone from a 3 pound catapult will go much farther if it is set on a perfect trajectory and maximum force.

How does the catapult work and how does it apply th scientific principles?

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.
