pOOl

in class we are now learning about collisions and this weekend i played some pool. this is a prime example of collisions because we can see the x and y components as the balls roll around the table. The cue ball (the white one) collides with another ball and depending on where on the face it hits the ball will convert all of its x energy into x and y on the other ball. We also learned that all of the energy is transferred and the ending energy remains the same as the beginning.
