Depending upon the game, there are from 7 to 21 colored balls.
There are 8 coloured balls in a standard game of pool (the 1 through 7 and the 8 ball), and there are 7 striped balls. That sums to 15 balls.
There is no game of pool practice, so there are no red balls. The 3 and 11 balls are red in the game of pool however.
There are seven striped balls in billiards.

The number of balls depends upon the game. All balls use a cue ball plus 7, 9, 15, or 21 numbered balls.
Why do you think that the pool balls are set up in the shape of a triangle to start the game?

This is the "break". After the balls are placed in formation, called the "rack", the first shot must break out a minimum of 1 to 4 balls, depending upon the game being played. This is the only type of "displacement" that occurs in a game of pool.
The force of gravity affects how fast a ball travels after it has been hit. Gravity tends to pull the balls towards the center of the pool table when the balls are struck. Gravity tends to pull the balls towards the center of the pool table when the balls are struck.
The problem with answering this question is that the transition from Billiard to Snooker is a gradual one - so whilst games existed with less than six balls it is unclear whether we can call this snooker. In its earliest form Snooker was a combination of two Pool type games - Life Pool and Pyramid Pool. The red balls come from pyramid pool, and the first colour, the black ball, from life pool. Three other colours were added a little later, the set being completed with the introduction of the brown and blue. The inclusion of these initial colours was first proposed in 1875 - dates for the inclusion of the brown and blue are unknown. It is unclear how well received or widespread these initial alterations were, but by 1882 the rules were standardised for a new game known as Snooker, with all six coloured balls included. One notable exception to the regular 6 coloured balls is Snooker Plus, a variation of the six-ball game invented by World Championship winner Joe Davis. The game introduced an orange ball (worth eight points) and a purple ball (worth ten points), to make a total of eight coloured balls, in an attempt to reinvigorate the game. However, the concept didn't catch on and Snooker Plus is now widely obsolete
