When the ball on the left is pulled to the side and released, it will swing back towards its resting position and collide with the ball on the right. Since the two balls have the same mass and are touching each other, when the left ball strikes the right ball, the left ball will come to a stop, and the right ball will swing to the right.

Therefore, the correct response is: The ball on the right will swing to the right.
