Although most of these ideas are based in simple geometry, there's weight, mass, speed, friction, deflection, angle of action/reaction, and gravity. So yeah it's physics, but let's not split hairs.
That's a commom misconception. If it were a 2-dimensional game it would be simple geometry. When it's 3-d and there are spinning spheres involved, it becomes physics.
@mtszabo NOOB! even in 2D (X and Y) its geometry and physics (but is not real scenario, because the "flat ball" can spin in 2D). In 3D it have 1 more variable X, Y and Z and it stills geometry and physics. It does NOT become nothing. It IS both.
The "flat ball" (often pronounced, "circle") can only spin clockwise or counter-clockwise. A sphere can spin forward, backward, left, right, and any combination thereof. Physics extends geometric concepts into a real-wold scenario. And who said anything about something becoming nothing? And why are you bothering to respond to a year-old comment? And really, who says, "NOOB" anymore?
its geometry, see the angle and make the "sphere" follow the desired geometric path...lol whata douche

It also have a lot to do with biology, chemistry and psychology, because Homo sapiens is wheeling the cue... He,he,he...

yeah knowing physics really does help your game you know what going on instead of guessing.

Yes, I'm a nerd. Sorry :o)

I ment to write "physics" there too.
krystian1333 3 years ago
you MEANT to write geometry and didn't know better.

FAILED as a nerd too.

I think you must have misread something, because I made no references to a two-year-old...
