Catapult physics
A counterweight falls, an arm pivots, and a projectile launches. Adjust the counterweight mass, arm length, and release angle to maximize range. Watch potential energy convert to kinetic energy, and see how air drag bends the ideal parabola into reality. Choose between stone and fireball projectiles.
