Angular Momentum Formula Elements

Variables
Angular Momentum
Angular Momentum is the degree to which a body rotates, gives its angular momentum.
Symbol: L
Measurement: Angular MomentumUnit: kg*m²/s
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Moment of Inertia
Moment of Inertia is the measure of the resistance of a body to angular acceleration about a given axis.
Symbol: I
Measurement: Moment of InertiaUnit: kg·m²
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Angular Speed
Angular Speed is the rate at which an object rotates or revolves around a central point or axis.
Symbol: ω
Measurement: Angular VelocityUnit: rev/s
Note: Value can be positive or negative.

How to Evaluate Angular Momentum?

Angular Momentum evaluator uses Angular Momentum = Moment of Inertia*Angular Speed to evaluate the Angular Momentum, Angular Momentum formula is defined as a measure of the tendency of an object to continue rotating, which depends on its moment of inertia, rotational velocity, and the distribution of mass around the axis of rotation, providing a fundamental concept in understanding rotational motion in physics. Angular Momentum is denoted by L symbol.

How to evaluate Angular Momentum using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Angular Momentum, enter Moment of Inertia (I) & Angular Speed (ω) and hit the calculate button.
