NEWTON'S CRADLE is a desktop device, a frame with five steel balls suspended from the top of the frame by strings. You pull out one of the end balls and let it go, and it swings in toward the other balls like a pendulum and hits the 2nd-to-last ball, but the energy it imparts transfers thru all the balls until the energy gets to the last ball on the other end and that ball swings out from the group under its own power. When it comes back, it hits the 2nd-to-last ball on that end, and it transfers the remaining energy thru all the balls till it gets to the ball you had originally dropped, which then swings out without your help, and the balls on either end keep swinging out and back in until all the energy is expended. Yeah, is that the thing?
