The prompt
Design a mechanical launcher capable of accelerating a 10 kg payload, and verify that the structure withstands the resulting loads without failure. Design Specifications Payload: 10 kg concentrated mass (model as a block or cylinder) Rigid base chassis Moving structural members with a mechanical stop or locking mechanism Reinforced pivot/hinge housing Energy storage and release mechanism Correctly defined rotational and translational joints Simulation Requirements Constrain the base appropriately. Alternative boundary conditions are acceptable if justified. Apply an equivalent dynamic load representing the peak launch forces produced by the 10 kg payload. Where the mechanism includes mechanical stops, account for contact and impact loading. Perform a structural stress analysis.
