If you stop an object moving in a circular path what direction will the object travel an instant later?

It will travel in the direction of the velocity. I guess learning physics pays off....

Which of these would change the direction of an object but not affect the object's speed?
Circular motion would change the direction of an object but would not affect the object's speed.
How can an object travelling in one direction be accelerated in another direction?
An object is accelerated in the direction of the net force acting on it, regardless of what direction it may be moving.
What does the motion of an object look like after the forces acting on it end?
We don't know what the forces were or in what direction, and we don't know anything about the object. So we have no idea what its motion looks like when the forces end. But we do know that whatever speed it has and whatever direction it's moving at the instant the forces stop, it'll continue in the same direction at the same speed from then on.
Together the speed and direction in which an object is moving are called?
velocity
Would a force have to be applied in the same or opposite direction to stop a moving ball?
The opposite direction. To stop a moving object requires an acceleration in the direction opposite its motion.
What is the direction of an object moving along a circular path?
360 degrees
What is the rate at which an object is moving at a given instant called?
speed if no direction is needed velocity if direction is needed
How fast is an object moving at the instant it hits the top of its trajectory?
Assuming that there is no velocity in the horizontal direction, then the velocity at that instant is zero.
What is the Direction of Acceleration of an object moving on any circular path at constant speed is pointed?
In toward the center of the circle.
Is uniform circular motion is accelerated motion?
if an object moves along a circular path, the only change in its velocity is due to the change in the direction of the motion. The motion of the object moving along the circular path is, which is a uniform circular motion, is therefore an accelerated motion:):):):/
What is the motion in which the velocity of the moving object does change?
Curved motion e.g circular motion and changed speed in the same direction.
Why uniform circular motion is called accelerated motion?
if an object moves along a circular path, the only change in its velocity is due to the change in the direction of the motion. The motion of the object moving along the circular path is, which is a uniform circular motion, is therefore an accelerated motion:):):):/
What is circular motion?
Circular Motion -a motion along a circular path or the motion of an object in a circular Example -blades of a ceiling fan when the fan is switched on. or The motion of body along the circular path is called circular motion
Is the momentum of an object moving in a circular path at a constant speed is constant?
determine if the momentum of an object moving in a circular path at constant speed is constant.
The net force on an object moving with constant speed in circular motion is in which direction?
The net force is always directly toward the center of the circle.
CENTRIPETAL?
A force that acts on a body moving in a circular path and is directed around the object which the body is moving
Can an object be accelerated if it is moving with constant speed?
Yes. The simplest such case is when the object is moving along a circle.
