Experienced players can throw a Frisbee so it skips off the ground (the Frisbee’s front edge actually tips upward after the Frisbee hits, enabling it to climb back into the air). If a right-handed player throws a Frisbee in the usual way, it rotates counterclockwise when viewed from above. To skip the Frisbee, which edge has to hit the ground (as seen by the thrower)? (Hint: The Frisbee’s angular momentum vector, and thus its rotation axis, changes in the direction of the external torque that the strike applies to the Frisbee.)

A. The back edge B. The front edge C. The right edge D. The left edge E. The entire rim must hit the ground simultaneously.
