👉 The bow is a traditional ranged weapon consisting of a long, slender, and flexible shaft attached to a string, used for launching projectiles such as arrows. It operates on the principle of stored elastic energy; when the bowstring is drawn back, it compresses the limbs, storing potential energy. Upon release, this energy is transferred to the projectile, propelling it forward with considerable speed and accuracy. Bow weapons have been used for thousands of years across various cultures, valued for their precision, power, and the skill required to wield them effectively.
