Know Facts on Instagram: "Trebuchet Physics Gravity as a weapon! 🏰⚙️ This large-scale trebuchet demonstrates the raw power of mechanical energy. A massive counterweight converts stored potential energy into rotational motion, whipping the arm around to launch a projectile with terrifying speed and precision. It’s a perfect example of ancient engineering principles that still hold up today. (Credit: gambey13 via @deepen.ai) #engineering #physics #mechanics #ancienttech #machines Trebuchet Catapu

Trebuchet History
The Warwolf, also known as the Loup-de-Guerre or Ludgar, is believed to have been the largest trebuchet ever made. It was created in Scotland by order of Edward I of England, during the siege of Stirling Castle in 1304, as part of the Wars of Scottish Independence. A contemporary chronicle refers to it as une engine orrible. Warwolf at Stirling When disassembled, the weapon would fill 30 wagons in parts. It reportedly took five master carpenters and forty-nine other labourers at least three mont
