How much would a one piece Riley pool cue dated from 1956 cost that has felt tip and has original metal one piece casing and weighs 16.5 oz?
This sounds lke a snooker cue. It is not a pool cue. Riley was not a recognized cue manufacturer in the US as either a production or custom maker in 1956. This cue has little value in the US to a collector and no value to a pool player. It may have value to a snooker player.
What is the purpose of a cue case?

Is it better to have a tight rack or lose rack?
A tight rack transfers the energy of the cue ball through the entire rack immediately, while a loose rack has gaps that must be filled from the ball just struck in front of it, creating more friction and therefor losing more energy. For the best spread on a break, make sure all the balls are touching. If the other player thinks the rack is not tight, he/she is allowed under the rules to demand a re-rack.
Where can one find a metal pool cue rack?

What best snooker cue to buy?
There is no "best snooker cue", conversely to tennis rack a snooker cue is not just a tool to strike balls with, it is an extension of your arm as described by Dennis Taylor, former snooker player and a veteran snooker commentator. This is why most snooker players prefer not to change their cue's and some use the same cue for 30 years.Stephen Hendry, 7 times World Snooker Championship used through out his career until 2003 a 40 GBP cue which he bought when he was 14 years old. This proves that it is not the cue but it is the cue-er.There are many high quality snooker cue brands but it all comes down to your preference. John Parris is a very famous cue maker and many snooker professionals use his cues. Mike Wooldridge, Accurate, Master cues, O'minand Cuecraft are all high quality well known brands.I would personally advise you to buy a quality snooker cue that does not come with thick polish layers even if it will slightly cost you but taking good care of the cue means it will stick with you for the rest of your life and when improving in the game, you wouldn't feel that the piece of wood you are carrying is cheap and it is time to change it.
If an action force is a cue ball hitting a billiard ball then what is the reaction force?
The reaction force is the object ball moving away after being struck. The cue ball may or may not come away with any energy, but it usually retains a bit. There is a "science" to where to strike the cue ball with the cue to achieve "position" in the game. You already know the zillion different things that a good player can do (must do!) with the cue ball to win a rack, though. The basic answer is that the kinetic energy of the cue ball will be transferred to the object ball in an largely inelastic collision. The object ball will then carry the energy away after the momentum of the cue ball is passed on to it. This is the case for a "straight shot" on the table with no English on the cue ball.
