Tech #6

We recently made catapults! It was a lot easier then I though it would be. The only things we used to make them were popsicle sticks and rubber bands. Also a Bottle cap which is the load because that’s where you would put things to launch. I don’t have a hot glue gun so I couldn’t hot glue it on. I think the purpose of this project was to learn the effort and load and how to measure it. I also wanted to paint my catapult but the paint could have stuck all the popsicle sticks together so it wouldn’t work… Anyways this project was very fun and taught me more about catapults and I will do it again but try different types of catapults!
