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.
