Solution

The correct option is D White
Snooker is a sport played on a large table having holes or pockets in each of the four corners and in the middle of each of the long side cushions.
It is played with 22 balls and a cue. The players use long thin sticks called cues to strike the cue ball which is white in colour.

Q. During a pool game the cue ball is shot at the red ball. When the cue ball strikes the red ball, the cue ball stops dead, and the red ball moves away at the same velocity the cue ball had before the collision. The type of collision represented in this example is:

A cue ball of mass 0.16 kg, rolling at 4.0 m/s, hits a stationary ball (numbered 8) of the same mass. If the cue ball travels $45^{\circ}$ with respect to its original path, and the eight number ball also at $45^{\circ}$ with respect to the horizontal then what is the velocity of each ball after the collision if they travel with the same velocity.

A billiard ball (of radius R), initially at rest is given a harp impulse by a cue. The cue is held horizontally a distance h above the central line. The ball leaves the cue with a speed $V_{0}$ , eventually acquires a final speed of $\frac{9}{7} V_{0}$ . Find h.
