In this example I am going to demonstrate containment of a variable number of spheres with gravity causing deceleration.  Below you see a simple Grid which I will place a set number of spheres within.  Each sphere will be inserted into the grid at a randomized X position, within the top 20 pixels of the container.  Each sphere drop immediately and react to any collision with the container or other spheres elastically.

If you run this a few times you are bound to find it freak out. I am still in the process of tracking down why on a occasion it appears get lost and the spheres disapear.
