Answer 1

Question :-

While rotating a stone tied to a string; on suddenly leaving the string ,what happened to the stone a) stone falls freely due to gravity b) move along the tangential force c) stone is projected upwards d) stone continues the circular motion.

Answer :-

Option b )

Explanation :-

When a body is in circular motion the direction of the body at any point is the tangent drawn to the circle at that point.

Hence if we leave the string due to inertia the body will tend to continue its motion in that particular direction where it was facing.

Hence the body will move at the tangent drawn at that point in the circular path of the motion of the body.
