Question

*A boy is whirling a stone tied to a string in a horizontal circular path. If the string breaks, the stone .......*

1️⃣ Will come towards the center of the the circular path
2️⃣ Will go away straight line perpendicular to the circular path.
3️⃣ will fly off along a straight line tangential to the circular path
4️⃣ Will hit the boy.​

Answer 1

Answer:

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.
