May 17, 2018 at 16:03 comment added Apoorv Potnis This may sound confusing at first but a centripetal force (a force which is directed towards the centre) and not a tangential force is necessary to keep an object in circular motion. After you release the ball in the air, it has got an upward and tangential velocity, but no centripetal force is acting on it which can cause the ball to perform circular motion. But your body will still perform circular motion because the merry-go-round seat on which you are sitting on will push you inwards.
