Bow & Arrow
A bow and arrow is a traditional projectile weapon consisting of a flexible, curved piece called a bow, and a long, straight shaft called an arrow. The bow stores potential energy when drawn back with tension; releasing it propels the arrow forward at high speed. This mechanism allows for precise targeting over distances. Bows and arrows have been used historically in hunting and warfare, and today they are also popular in sport archery. The design and materials affect accuracy, range, and power, making it a versatile tool that combines physics with craftsmanship.
