What causes the "ghost trail" effect on the IR videos? Is it something "real," or just an artifact of the camera?

[DrDaveBilliards]

@GetMeThere1

A sliding CB creates friction, which generates heat at the contact point with the cloth. Heated areas show up well with an IR camera.

if i chalk the cue and let some of the chalk powder falling the cue ball then will it help increasing the friction caused between the cue ball and the table's surface when hitting?

[DrDaveBilliards]

The chalk dust is very fine and tends to settle into and beneath the cloth; but if the cloth isn't cleaned very often, the build up of chalk dust and dirt can have an effect on cloth friction.

C is used in most parts of the world and in sciences. learn it.
