The equation a = Fnet / m is valid in any dimension. That is, a = Fnet / m implies ax = Fnet x / m and ay = Fnet y / m. Similarly, the law of conservation of momentum is valid in any dimension. pA0 + pB0 = pA + pB implies pA0x + pB0x = pAx + pBx and pA0y + pB0y = pAy + pBy.Standard cue balls have masses of 170 grams, while numbered billiard balls have masses of only 160 grams.
