The Catapult challenge

The catapult challenge was a fun challenge which I learned how to measure force and how much force something needs. The requirements for the catapult was, 6 popsicle stickes, 4 rubber bands, 30 cm of tape, 1 spoon, and 1 marshmellow. My teams catapult met all the requirements and our catapult went good as you can see from the video. My team and I measured the force of our catapult with logger pro. Here's the data. One thing I would do differently is I would put the spoon closer to the edge, and I would make the rubber bands closer to the spoon
