A property of rotating bodies or systems of masses which is dependent upon the distribution and velocities of the masses about the axis of rotation. The angular momentum of a single particle of mass, m, moving in a circular orbit of radius, R, at velocity, v, is given by mvR. Angular momentum is a conserved quantity, in other words, the total angular momentum of a system is constant. Thus if a la...
