Either 'feature' or 'option' are okay. Don't use facility in this sentence.

Either "The power is back" or "The electricity is back" is fine. You could also say "The lights are back on."

Either is fine. However, you need a definite article before ball.

Try putting/hitting the pink ball in/into the pocket.

Yes. You could also use the verb 'pick', but it's not necessarily any better.
