How do you build a catapult which will fire a racquetball 7 meters?
To build a catapult that can fire a racquetball 7 meters, you can use a sturdy base, a lever arm, and a launching mechanism. Construct a triangular base for stability, attach a long lever arm to a pivot point, and use a strong elastic material (like a bungee cord) to provide the launching force. Position the racquetball in a cup at the end of the lever arm, pull it back to store energy, and release it to launch the ball. Adjust the angle of the arm and the tension in the elastic to optimize the distance.

Does the spring mader on a catupult?
Most catapult's store their energy in twisted ropes, wound tightly by a wheel crank on the side of the catapult. The arm of the catapult is in between the two wound ropes. When a lever releases the gear attached to the rope, the rope unwinds, sending the arm of the catapult forward violently (flinging it's contents vast distances). Tribuchet's are a later more advanced manual artillery system. It used counter weight released by a pulley to fling massive boulders thousands of feet. But there is no real-world spring catapult. Most use ropes or counterweight and are far more capable.
What kind of force does a catapult use?
A catapult uses the force of tension, which is created when the catapult's arm is pulled back and potential energy is stored in the tension of the rope or spring. When the arm is released, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, propelling the projectile forward. The release mechanism of the catapult, such as a trigger or lever, allows the tension force to be quickly and efficiently transferred to the projectile.
