Catapult physics is basically the use of stored energy to hurl a projectile (the payload), without the use of an explosive. The three primary energy storage mechanisms are tension, torsion, and gravity.The catapult has proven to be a very effective weapon during ancient times, capable of inflicting great damage.atapult physics is basically the use of stored energy to hurl a projectile (the payload), without the use of an explosive.
