Centripetal force is the resultant force acting towards the centre of orbit of an object undergoing uniform circular motion.
No
At the instant the centripetal force disappeared, the moon would take off in a straight line into space, and would never be seen or heard from again.
it would stay in place because the earth is its centripetal force and if it doesnt have the earth it wouldn't orbit
Centripetal force is always directed towards the center of the circle of motion that an object is traveling in.
Any net force will change an object's velocity. In the case of a centripetal force, it changes the direction of the movement, and therefore its velocity.

The Centripetal Force
centripetal force is the acceleration in the circle
Centripetal force acts towards the center of the circle of motion.
Centripetal force is a force that keeps an object inwards, in the case of circular motion or similar.
