← HistoryWhich outcome resulted from reduced torsion in a Roman catapult during rapid firing?
A)Extended projectile trajectory length✓
B)Decreased winch gear resistance
C)Diminished structural frame oscillations
D)Repeated rope fiber disintegration
💡 Explanation
Increased range occurred due to less energy loss. The torsion spring provided the energy to launch the projectile, therefore reduced torsion increased efficiency, resulting in longer range, rather than other forms of mechanical failure or inefficiencies.
