What are the mysteries in the balls?
Ball 1: Nothing inside. Shaking produces no sound. Behaves normally when rolled and bounced.
Ball 2: 10 steel balls inside (6mm dia.) Shaking produces a rattle sound, followed by whirling sound. Rolls normally but also with a whirling sound. Bounces normally.
Ball 3: Sand inside. Shaking produces a gentle sound. Refuses to roll backwards or forwards. Spins in an eccentric arc and does not bounce.
