As part of a year-end project, a group of high school physics students created a working trebuchet. The trebuchet was a cross-curricular project, counting for both physics and history classes. For physics, the students working out the theoretical range, trajectory, and speed, and compared to the actual results. Watch the group's video for an overview.
