If in Q . 21 the speed of the stone is increased beyond the maximum permissible value and the string breaks suddenly which of the following correctly describes the trajectory of the stone after the string breaks :
(a) the stone jerks radially outwards
(b) the stone flies off tangentially from the instant the string breaks
(c) the stone flies off at an angle with the tangent whose magnitude depends on the speed of the stone ?

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to analyze the motion of the stone attached to the string when the string breaks. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Initial Conditions**: - The stone is moving in a circular path due to the tension in the string, which provides the necessary centripetal force to keep it in circular motion. 2. **Identifying Forces**: ...
