Resumen
Angular momentum (a vector) is introduced. The rate of change of angular momentum is related to the torque (also a vector). In the absence of an external torque, angular momentum is conserved. Spin angular momentum (of planets, stars, neutron stars) is also discussed. Momentum, conservation of mechanical energy Educação Superior::Ciências Exatas e da Terra::Física
