Question
An object is moving at a uniform speed in a counter clockwise direction in a uniform circular motion. At the location shown, the centripetal force stops acting on the object. Which path will the object follow?
Hint:
In uniform circular motion, at any point the velocity is directed towards the tangent of the circle.
The correct answer is:
Therefore when the centripetal force stops acting on the body in an uniform circular motion, the body flies away tangentially.
