Angular momentum is equal to

Options

A. moment of inertia `xx` angular velocity
B. mass `xx` anglar velocity
C. linear velocity `xx` angular velocity
D. mass `xx` linear velocity

Answer

A

Explanation

The angular momentum of a rigid object is defined as the product of the moment of inertia and the angular velocity. It is analogous to linear momentum and is subject to the fundamental constraints of the conservation of angular momentum principle if there is no external torque on the object. Angular momentum is a vector quantity.
