Post 3 trebuchet challenge
The theoretical range of our trebuchet was 1442.30 meters. the actual average distance the ball traveled was 51.06 meters. The reasons our trebuchet didn't go the theoretical range was due to air resistance, gravity, also the wind pushing the ball to the side, and our performance factors were not dial in perfectly. the photo is a picture of our trebuchet ready to fire.
