After all it's only in maths that you can take 20 watermelons and not be asked what the [Poor language removed] you're doing.
Or not have diabetes if you eat 20 candy bars, just because you have them.
Me too, but I gotta know a lot of pointless stuff because I'm going for electronic and electrical engineering, yaaaaay.

Try this one for size........
A 'snooker' table (measuring 8 metres by 4m) with 4 'pockets' (measuring 0.5m and placed at diagonal slants in all 4 corners) contains 10 balls (each with a diameter of 0.25m) placed at the following coords:
2m,1m...(white ball)
...and red balls...
1m,5m... 2m,5m... 3m,5m
1m,6m... 2m,6m... 3m,6m
1m,7m... 2m,7m... 3m,7m
The white ball is then shot at a particular angle from 0 to 360 degrees (0 being north, and going clockwise).
Just to make it clear, a ball is 'potted' if at least half of the ball is in area of the 'pocket'
Assuming the balls travel indefinitely (i.e. no loss of energy via friction, air resistance or collisions), answer the following:
a: What exact angle/s should you choose to ensure that all the balls are potted the quickest?
b: What is the minimum amount of contacts the balls can make with each other before they are all knocked in?
c: Same as b, except that each ball - just before it is knocked in - must not have hit the white ball on its previous contact (must be a red instead of course).
d: What proportion of angles will leave the white ball the last on the table to be potted?

You need a scientific calculator you bells.
it's a trick question as everyone knows a snooker table has 6 pockets....bunch of weirdos.

42 for all questions of course, just put it into Google ffs
Reidy's Bottle Of Grecian
The Unobstructed View
10 shots, 1 for each red directly into the pocket.... without striking the cue ball.
zero degrees as each ball being is being knocked straight in with the cue.
it's some feckin table and set of ivories btw
8m table
1/2 metre pockets
feckin foofballs as well.
what you using as a cue mate ? a caber ?

Actually the last figure is wrong, its not 1 but 0.99 recurring.
