A stone tied to one end of rope and rotated in a circular motion. If the string suddenly breaks, then the stone travels
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
in tangential direction
The stone travels in a tangential direction because, upon the string breaking, the centripetal force vanishes, and the stone continues its motion along the tangent to the circular path.

A ball throwing cannon, lifts ball and throws with Speed. If balls are raised upto . then find Input power of cannon if it lifts 8 balls per minute and its efficiency is . Mass of each ball is .
Assertion:When a particle moves in a circle with a uniform speed its acceleration is constant but the velocity changes.
Reason: Angular displacement is not an axial vector. A body of mass thrown vertically upwards attains a maximum height . As what height will its kinetic energy be of its initial value? Assertion: Centripetal force does no work.
Reason: Force and displacement are perpendicular to each other. Statement I: Both stretched and compressed springs possess potential energy.
Statement II: Work done against restoring force is stored as potential energy. A bullet of mass moving at a speed hits a ball of mass kept at rest. A small part having mass breaks from the ball and sticks to the bullet. The remaining ball is found to move at a speed in the direction of the bullet. Find the velocity of the bullet after the collision.
