if it had a large weight it was throwing then it probably would affect the throwing distance and height...the best rock thrower is called a trebuchet.
it could also affect the speed the progectile is moving making it fall short of the desired distance.
If it is too heavy the catapult might not be able to lift the progectile off the ground.
hope this helps

The difference is that the trebuchet sling the stone or fireballs .A catapult doesn't sling and it doesn't carry as much weight

In a catapult, the boulder is placed in a bucket or a sling, which is the part of the catapult designed to hold and launch the projectile. The bucket or sling is usually attached to a lever arm that, when released, propels the boulder forward. Proper positioning ensures an effective launch and maximizes distance and accuracy.
you make a catapult!
Depends on the structural integrity of the deck.

Yes, weight can affect how far a catapult launches a tennis ball. A heavier weight in the catapult can generate more force and potential energy, which can result in the tennis ball being launched further. However, the weight must be balanced and optimized to ensure the catapult operates efficiently and effectively.
a trebuchet is a type of catapult. it used a counter weight
The speed of a catapult is affected by factors like the tension in the catapult's rope or spring, the weight of the projectile being launched, the length of the catapult arm, and the angle at which the projectile is launched. Increasing tension, reducing projectile weight, increasing arm length, and finding the optimal launch angle can all help increase the speed of a catapult.
Trebuchet is catapult that uses weight to fire.
