How Do Restitution Coefficients Affect Billiard Ball Trajectories?
Ok, so at first, I didnt see the problem the right way. It's more a geometric problem. Here is my solution, sorry it's in french.. When e is 1, we can consider the ''similar triangle'' to find that x = d/3 When e is 0.8, we have to find the ''dimension'' of the others triangle, I found that...- aturcotte16

How Do Restitution Coefficients Affect Billiard Ball Trajectories?
Thanks! Thats exactly where I was wrong. I was looking at this problem for the relation between A and B. But it's more with B and C and where the direction will change with different restitution coefficient. Thanks for all of you! ..(sorry for my English, I'm french)- aturcotte16

How Do Restitution Coefficients Affect Billiard Ball Trajectories?
The problem I have here is that I can't see how the restitution coefficients (e) will change the trajectory of the ball since the speed of the ball B will be on the same direction as the normal component. And without information one the ball A, I can't see how to resolve that. I will really...- aturcotte16
