Physics Of Billiards – Ball Collision The physics behind billiards (or the physics behind pool), in large part, involves collisions between billiard balls. When two billiard balls collide the collision is nearly elastic. An elastic collision is one in which the kinetic energy of the system is ...
With what you have under your belt right now, you could whip up a pretty decent game of billiards, which would be a fitting thing to do with billiard ball physics! One thing I've totally ignored in these examples, just to keep them simple, is the concept of friction. You might want ...
Two types of billiard chalk to reduce hand friction or increase tip friction. Silicon spray can be used by trickshot artists to reduce ball-cloth friction. Normal trajectory of a billiard ball: A parabola followed by a straight line. Making the cue ball stop after hitting the object ball...
Figure 1: The billiard ball is a perfect sphere The second principle of dynamics states that, when a body is subjected to a force, its acceleration and speed vary. If that body meets another, then momentum comes into play. To a good approximation, the balls are rigid bodies, and the sys...
The meaning of the foregoing should be clear. Despite the claims of particle physicists that the photon is a particle, it was in its original conception and is in its current quantitative description a wave phenomenon. A photon is not a particle like a proton or a billiard ball. A photon ...
Perhaps one can mitigate the resignation to live without “Anschauung” in the following sense: We have to get rid of the “billiard ball particles” and to get used to a new kind of “Anschauung,” oriented at symmetries and related concepts like operations, invariants, eigenvalues, etc. Tod...

But what about collisions, such as those between billiard balls, in which objects scatter to the side? These are two-dimensional collisions, and we shall see that their study is an extension of the one-dimensional analysis already presented. The approach taken (similar to the approach in ...
billiard balls are the same exact mass, and one hits another stationary one head on, I have heard that the hitting ball will often stop entirely while the one which got hit will go off at the original velocity of the first one (ignoring friction and heat and other potential loss of ...
The momentum of each particle is so high that almost all of that particle's velocity is transferred to the wax particle. Conservation of energy means that the wax particle will gain nearly 2x the velocity of the ball's particle. This can be seen when a billiard ball meets a ping pong ...
