History

Which risk increased due to the early Song Dynasty's transition from manual to gunpowder-powered trebuchets?

A)Misfire rate dramatically increased
B)Projectile range became unpredictable
C)Structural instability significantly worsened
D)Ammunition became progressively scarce

💡 Explanation

Rapid loading using gunpowder trebuchets caused increased structural weakness, so structural instability rose due to faster, more forceful operation exploiting kinetic energy buildup, rather than misfires because gunpowder yield caused more stress.
