a couple of them are kinetic & potential energy and gravity!
The invention that made catapults obsolete was gunpowder artillery, particularly cannons. By the late Middle Ages, cannons provided a more powerful and accurate means of siege warfare, allowing armies to breach fortifications from a greater distance. The increased range and destructive capability of gunpowder weaponry rendered traditional siege engines like catapults less effective and eventually led to their decline in military use.
The Greek Dionysius the Elder of Syracuse, invented in 399 BC. The Palintonon\ Davinchi is also said to have drafted some of the earliest catapults.
The main purpose of a catapult is to launch projectiles over a distance, using stored energy to convert it into kinetic energy. Historically, catapults were used in warfare to hurl stones or other objects at enemy fortifications. They also serve as a demonstration of basic principles of physics, such as potential and kinetic energy, making them popular in educational settings. Additionally, catapults can be used for recreational purposes, such as in competitions or engineering challenges.
The Catapults were used by the medieval Greeks and Romans.
yes they use catapults
Some catapults were used in the middle ages to try and get into Medieval Castles. The Romans had catapults. I had a hand catapult when I was a youngster.
they used these catapults for war and destruction!
a catapults is a machine that is similar to a gint slingshout,objcts such as bounlders
Catapults were not used in WW2
People don't need catapults when they have guns.
The catapults have been used in many wars
The concept of force in simple levers is used in catapults to launch projectiles with greater speed and force. By using the lever principle, a small force applied over a long distance (arm of the catapult) can create a large force over a short distance to launch the projectile. This allows catapults to hurl objects over great distances.
Catapults were common over most of the Western world and around the Mediterranean.
Catapults are useful to get an attack with more range.
catapults are made out of rope wood and maybe animal hide
