🪨 抛 = hand 扌 + 九 + 力: the arm and strength that send something flying
抛 — hand radical 扌 + 抛 phonetic 尥/包-like element
抛 is a semantic-phonetic compound. The hand radical 扌 carries the meaning of throwing or casting away, fitting actions done with the hand. The right side originally served as a phonetic clue, and over time 抛 settled into its modern sense of 'to throw, toss, or abandon.'
