For an object in uniform circular motion, what happens if the centripetal force suddenly disappears?
Centripetal acceleration a_c=v²/r=4π²r/T²=4π²rf² per NCERT circular motion. Substituting r and frequency/period gives a_c value matching It moves in a straight line tangentially. Other options use incorrect r or f, so B is correct.
