Which outcome resulted from increased crossbow trigger spring wear?

💡 Explanation

Reduced projectile kinetic energy occurred because stress relaxation reduced the *spring constant* in the trigger's torsion spring, therefore reducing the elastic potential energy transferred and projectile velocity, rather than greater forces; spring material property changes dominated.
