Yes, suppose a body is rotating anti-clockwise, then its angular velocity and angular momentum, at any moment are along axis of rotation in upward direction. And when body is rotating clockwise, its angular velocity and angular momentum are along axis of rotation in downward direction. This is regardless of the fact whether angular velocity of the body is increasing or decreasing.
angular momentum and angular velocity
Angular velocity means how fast something rotates. The exact definition of angular momentum is a bit more complicated, but it is the rotational equivalent of linear momentum. It is the product of moment of inertia and angular speed.
Angular velocity is a vector with a direction and angular speed is a scalar with no direction.
Angular momentum is a vector quantity. Angular velocity, which is a vector quantity, is multiplied by inertia, which is a scalar quantity.
The direction of angular acceleration comes from whether the angular speed of the object is clockwise or counterclockwise and whether it is speeding up or slowing down.The direction of the angular acceleration will be positive if the angular velocity is counterclockwise and the object's rotation is speeding up or if the angular velocity is clockwise and the object's rotation is slowing downThe direction of the angular acceleration will be negative if the angular velocity is clockwise and the object's rotation is speeding up or if the angular velocity is counterclockwise and the object's rotation is slowing downThe angular acceleration will not have a direction if the object's angular velocity is constant

By finding the direction of angular velocity because it's always parallel to it.

Angular velocity is a vector with a direction and angular speed is a scalar with no direction.
momentum is product of moment of inertia and angular velocity. There is always a 90 degree phase difference between velocity and acceleration vector in circular motion therefore angular momentum and acceleration can never be parallel
the equation of angular momentum is L=I*w (w=omega=angular velocity)
Angular momentum is a vector quantity. Angular velocity, which is a vector quantity, is multiplied by inertia, which is a scalar quantity.
Take the velocity to be in positive direction. Positive acceleration increases velocity and they are in the same direction. Negative acceleration reduce velocity and they are in opposite direction. It does not matter if the motion in linear or anfular.
Only if there's no mass involved.

They don't rotate in the same direction. But most of the rotation comes about from the conservation of angular momentum. Angular momentum is given by L=m*w*r2 where m is the mass, w is the angular velocity in radians per second, and r is the radius of the circular motion. Due to conservation of angular momentum, if the radius of the orbit decreases, then its angular velocity must increase (as the mass is constant). Hope I answered your question...

Angular momentum is an expression of an objects mass and rotational speed. Momentem is the velocity of an object times its mass, or how fast something is moving times how much it weighs. Therefore angular momentum is the objects mass times the angular velocity where angular velocity is how fast something is rotating expressed in terms like revolutions per minute or radians per second or degrees per second.
