| Jan 27, 2016 at 5:08 | comment | added | aroth | I'd say the answer is 0, because you didn't stipulate that the ball's motion over the billiard table is frictionless or that the collisions are 100% elastic. Under realistic physics, the ball comes to a stop well before 20160127 impacts. Unless it's internally powered or something. | |

| Jan 26, 2016 at 15:32 | comment | added | Carl Löndahl | @SpiritFryer Yes, once the ball reaches any corner it will stop. | |
| Jan 26, 2016 at 15:23 | comment | added | SpiritFryer | Is my assumption about the way the ball bounces off the corners correct? (Under which assumption, a path heading from A to B would result in an infinite cycle of the ball going A -> B -> C -> A ...) If the assumption is wrong then we assume that a path stops once the ball reaches a corner. | |
| Jan 26, 2016 at 15:18 | comment | added | Carl Löndahl | @SpiritFryer No | |
| Jan 26, 2016 at 14:57 | comment | added | SpiritFryer | Should a path be counted if on that path the ball visits A before the 20160127th bounce? (I assume the ball bounces off the corners as if it were bouncing off a line that makes 60 degrees with both of the triangle's sides at that corner.) | |
