A catapult is a system that is used to     
throw a projectile large distances. Catapults 
are also siege engines that use a arm to hurl 
missiles and medieval warfare. 
            Catapults can be classified according to 
the physical concept used to store and release
the energy required to throw the projectile. 
Initially a catapult was designed to toss spears 
and other warfare at a low trajectory. 
        Common objects that were used for 
ammunition in catapults were stones, pot of burning oil, burning debris, boulders, and other dangerous objects.
