Dee Septor, the famous magician, claimed to be able to throw a ping-pong ball so that it would go a short distance, come to a dead stop, and then reverse itself. He also added that he would not bounce the ball against any object or tie anything to it. How could he perform this feat?

I'd like to propose another answer... he threw the ball in the air, at which it stopped and reverted itself and came back to him...


I figured this out by tossing my eraser just now!

FB you are beautiful and correct you smarty-pants.

If you threw it to someone (or into the wind as I guessed) it wouldn't travel straight, it would travel in an arc, right? I say you win. Now come on over here and we'll celebrate appropriately

You do realise I could be completely wrong, right?

To be precise, it may not be the answer the beautiful Miss Elizabeth is looking for, but the answer is nevertheless 100% correct. Or so sez me.

[tommynova2001]

I am no rocket scientist but I have to concur that FB is correct. Launch, apogee, and descent.

 

[fire_breeze]

So... who got the question right? Inquiring minds need to know!
