Question

Barry was playing pool. He struck the cue ball (the white ball) with his cue stick. The ball moved toward the other balls that were sitting, all touching each other, in the middle of the pool table. What happened when the cue ball hit one of the other balls?
A. All of the balls lost energy.
B. The cue ball and the ball it hit lost energy.
C. All of the balls except the cue ball lost energy.
D. Only the cue ball lost energy.

Answer 1

Answer:

Only the cue ball lost energy, because when you think about it when the cue ball strikes the others it shoots from the triangle it was formed and the 15 balls shoot across the table until they stop but the cue ball is still at the hit position
