When an animal walks normally and propels stones that break utensils in another's courtyard, how much does the owner pay?
Halachah 1-2: Propelled stones (tzeroros) are an exception — even in another's domain, only half-damages are paid when the animal walks naturally.
Question 2
What makes a payment a 'fine' (kenas) rather than a monetary obligation?
Halachah 7: Double, fourfold, and fivefold payments are fines because they exceed the actual damage. Only exact-damage payments are monetary obligations.
Question 3
A rooster crows inside a glass container and breaks it. No spices were stored inside. What does the owner pay?
Halachah 8: Since this is unusual behavior, only half-damages apply when nothing of value was stored inside the container.
Question 4
When a dog or goat jumps downward from a roof and breaks utensils, what does the owner pay?
Halachah 14: Jumping downward is natural behavior for dogs and goats, so the owner is liable for the full extent of the damage.
Question 5
If an animal kicked the ground intentionally and propelled stones that caused damage in another person's domain, what is owed?
Halachah 4-5: When the animal kicked intentionally (in another's domain), the owner pays full damages; the propelled-stones exception only applies to natural walking.
