Usually yes...but it depends on the angle of trajectory, weight and aerodynamics of the thing being catapulted, the length of the "arm" of the catapult, and the amount of force that the catapult is set to hurl the object.
Example: a feather on the 10lb catapult which is set at a high trajectory and a low force will go almost nowhere while a stone from a 3 pound catapult will go much farther if it is set on a perfect trajectory and maximum force.

What dose beyond mean?
if take as preposition than it means 1 at or to the further side of. 2 outside the scope or understanding of (beyond repair; it is beyond me). 3 more than. if take as adjective then it means 1 at or to the further side. 2 further on.
How does angle affect the distance of a projectile?
yes it does. you see if you have it set up at a a 90 degree angle it will go further than it would of a 10 degree angle A projectile leaving the ground at an angle of 45 degrees will attain the maximum range. Fire it straight up and it will fall back to its launch location (wind effects etc. ignored). Fire it horizontally and it will hit the ground very much the same time as if it was dropped from its launch platform at the same time. That would not be very far.
