The prompt

Animate the supplied laboratory image of a five-ball Newton's cradle. Preserve exactly five identical steel balls, equal string lengths, rigid rectangular frame, white tabletop, fixed side camera, and neutral side light.

0–2s — an adult hand enters slowly from the left, lifts only the leftmost ball to a 35-degree angle, pauses, and releases without pushing.
2–5s — the ball swings down and strikes the stationary group. The rightmost ball rises to a similar but slightly lower angle while the three middle balls remain visually close together. Show one clear return cycle at normal speed.
5–8s — amplitude decreases naturally; camera remains fixed while an off-screen narrator says, "Momentum passes through the touching balls; friction slowly removes energy from the motion."

PHYSICS: Strings stay taut, frame remains grounded, collisions occur at the center line, no ball gains height, and damping is gradual.

AUDIO: Finger release, crisp but realistic metal contacts, faint room tone, exact narration. No ticking soundtrack or music.

AVOID: six balls, floating strings, amplified swing, sparks, slow-motion distortion, formula text, logo, subtitles, watermark.
