Angular momentum L of a rotating body is given by:

Answer: L = Iω.

  • A L = Iω
  • B L = mv²
  • C L = τ × t
  • D L = F × r

Correct answer: A. L = Iω

Explanation: L = Iω (angular momentum = moment of inertia x angular velocity). It is conserved when net torque is zero.

axis OPr⊥Fττ = r⊥ × F = r × F × sinθ

Torque about axis O equals the force F multiplied by the perpendicular distance r⊥ from the axis to the line of action of the force, producing rotation.

Concept context

Moment of inertia, torque, angular momentum, rolling motion. Very high JEE weightage.
