The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze how the units of angular momentum change when the units of mass, length, and time are doubled. ### Step 1: Understand the formula for angular momentum The angular momentum \( L \) is given by the formula: \[ L = M \cdot V \cdot R \] where: - \( M \) is mass, - \( V \) is linear velocity, - \( R \) is the radius (or distance from the axis of rotation). ### Step 2: Identify how the units change If the units of mass, length, and time are doubled: - New mass unit \( M' = 2M \) - New length unit \( R' = 2R \) - New time unit \( T' = 2T \) ### Step 3: Determine how velocity changes Velocity \( V \) is defined as: \[ V = \frac{R}{T} \] When the units of length (R) are doubled and the units of time (T) are also doubled, the new velocity \( V' \) can be calculated as follows: \[ V' = \frac{R'}{T'} = \frac{2R}{2T} = \frac{R}{T} = V \] This means that the velocity remains unchanged. ### Step 4: Substitute the new values into the angular momentum formula Now we substitute the new values into the angular momentum formula: \[ L' = M' \cdot V' \cdot R' = (2M) \cdot V \cdot (2R) \] This simplifies to: \[ L' = 2M \cdot V \cdot 2R = 4 \cdot (M \cdot V \cdot R) = 4L \] ### Step 5: Conclusion Thus, the new unit of angular momentum \( L' \) is four times the original unit of angular momentum \( L \): \[ L' = 4L \] ### Final Answer The unit of angular momentum will be quadrupled, or 4 times the original unit. ---
