Question

19.1 A boy is willing a stone tied with a string in a hormonal drouter path as shown in the following
figure
the string breaks the one
(a) Wilmove along a strawht line towards the centre of the circular
b) WW move along a stropit line the tangential to the route path
( Will move along a straight line perpendicular to the drouler path
away from the boy
(0) Will continue to move in the circular path​

Answer 1

Answer:

will move along a straight line tangential to the circular path

When the boy is whirling a stone tied with a string in a circular path, the centripetal force acts towards the center of the circular path. However, when the string breaks the centripetal force ceases and there is no force acting. Thus, the stone as per Newtons first law will continue in a straight line and fly off along the tangent to the circular path.
