[QUOTE="Byte, post: 276232, member: 1509"] Does anybody else think that balls sometimes do not lose their sideways (up/down seems OK but is harder to see) momentum when they are supposed to? It's like the ball was going left, finds an obstacle (which appears to absorb the kinetic energy, stopping the ball from moving any further left), ball moves up or down along the obstacle, then when it clears the obstacle it suddenly continues to move left without any apparent force acting on it. In real physics doesn't it lose that sideways momentum and should move straight up or down at the angle it was travelling when touching that obstacle? Maybe when I get my hands on a cheap 1080p60 recording device, I can record what I mean, and enlarge that part of the screen to show it. [/QUOTE]
