Video of Billiards and Moths

What other teachers say...

Part I of Video: Billiards

"This could be simple linear causality because the cue hits the black ball and makes it move."

"In the beginning, it hits the ball which hits all the balls, so that is more domino-like, or even a branching or radiating kind of domino."

"If you take a physics perspective, it is more complicated, but the way most of us see it, it looks like simple domino causality."

Part II of Video: Moths

"This seems like simple linear causality—the moth sees the light and goes right to it."

"Even though moths circle lights, that is just a circular pattern—the cause and effect pattern is that the light goes on and the moth goes to it. One thing makes another thing happen."
