Think of a baseball, the instant the bat hits the ball, it has to stop for a brief second then go the other way.

So the question is: Since this is an elastic collision, and the fly undergoes a 180 degree turn in motion, and since the train is attached to the fly at this instant...

... does the fly, technically, stop the train?



hey I did this one with Vic when the new board opened

I don't recommend trying such training. You do get used to it, but it hurts when doing it
