When you put a backspin on a ball, the direction of the ball is going backwards. So when it finally hits any surface, it then hits that surface with the direction of the ball forcing it to go backwards...towards you!

Is that true if you put your head upside down you'll get smarter?
its actually not about you get smart or not and im not really sure about that. what im sure about is that if you put your head up side down, the blood is going to change it dircation which is good for the brain as well as all the head. So the summery of that is if you put your head up side down the blood going to go to the other part of your head which is the uper part. The proof for that is when you put you head up side down for 2mint and return it back you ging to relase there is some thing comeing down inside your head which is the blood that went up and come back and these is really naturle... hope its going to helpe :)

Yes you can you put a spin on the ball so it bounces back at you
Why do you need spin on a golf ball in golf?
All clubs put backspin on the ball (unless you totally duff it). As the ball moves though the air with backspin lift is created. This is called the Magnus effect, it is similar to Bernoulli affect. The spinning creates a pressure differential and thus lift. As to whether or not a ball releases, checks, or spins back upon landing is dependent upon several variables: Spin rate upon landing, angle of decent, angle of the surface, ball velocity, hardness of the ground, and the coefficient of friction between the ball and the landing surface. ANSWER: Back spin on a golf ball causes the golf ball to spin backwards as it travels away from the person who hit the ball. Hitting a golf ball with a back spin will allow the golf ball to travel a great distance with a high arc. Setting a golf ball in motion with a back spin also will help to bring the ball to a stop when it hits the ground.
Does a foul tip go faster than the pitch?
It depends on the type of foul tip. If you cause the ball to spin fast on a foul tip it will speed up, if you change the spin of the ball it will slow down. With this said, pitchers in baseball generally put "top spin" on their pitches meaning it is spinning forward -- so if the batter swings underneath the ball and foul tips it, then the ball will speed up as the spin will go faster after contact with the bat. If the batter swings over top of the ball and foul tips it, then the ball will slow down more then likely as it will cause the spin of the ball to change to "back spin" Now in the eyes of the field the spins will be opposite.. when a batter hits the ball in play but swings under the ball it will put backspin on the ball for the fielder, if he swings on top of the ball it will cause "top spin" -- that is why ground balls and line drivers are generally traveling faster then the pitch did, and fly balls travel slower then the pitch
What does a golfer put on a shot to lessen pressure on top of ball?
Spin.
How do you pot a snooker ball?
To put spin or side on a cue ball you strike the ball off-centre. So imagine a point in the centre of the ball which is half way up from the table and directly opposite to the direction you wish the ball to travel. If you strike the ball around this point you will force the ball to spin. So strike below this point to put backspin on the ball, above this point to put top-spin and either side to put side-spin. Obviously you can impart both top and side or bottom and side by striking the ball towards a diagonal. The spin you put on the ball will act to move the ball in the direction of the spin. This is most notable in back-spin where once the forward momentum of the ball is taken by striking another ball the backspin cause the ball to move in th opposite direction of the strike. The amount of spin placed on the ball can take affect as the ball is moving, so enough side-spin can cause the ball to follow a curved path. The effects of the spin can be improved by tilting to follow the type of spin you wish t impart; so hold the butt of the cue higher to get better backspin or hold the butt lower to get better top-spin. Doing this with side spin becomes difficult as you have to adjust the angle of the strike. In its most extreme you can strike downwards towards the side of the ball to cause it to curve - this takes a lot of practice and you have to be careful you do not damage the table. However I find the most important part of putting spin on the ball is ensuring that you follow through the stroke with your cue and make the stroke smooth and decisive. If you snatch at the cue you will either hit the ball in the wrong place or scoop the ball causing it to jump. I hope you have found this helpful.
How does the type of spin given to a baseball by a pitcher influence the path of the baseball?
When you throw the baseball, twist your wrist and you will notice it go down.
Which direction will ball spin when it hits the ground?
A ball doesn't start spinning just because it has hit the ground. It might roll or bounce but not spin. If it does then it depends on the spin you put on it before it hits the ground.
How can you get your springer spaniel to play ball?
You throw a ball and make them walk over there and you put it in their mouth then make them come back and they will slowly get the hang of it.
Why does a basketball bounce?
I do not think they naturally have backspin. The backspin is applied by the player and also depends how the throw is made.

What is the best kind of a spin to use when shooting in basketball?
Don't focus too much on the spin. The best type of spin to use is back spin, which most players use, but the spin is not the most important part of the shot. Some players have little spin on the ball but are great shooters, with Ray Allen being an example. i wouldn't focus much on the spin but more of an emphasis on following through and your formation. i find its all in the fling of the wrist that puts the ideal spin when shooting the ball and i don't think its necessary to put any unnatural spin unless its part of your dribbling technique.
