Does linear motion have angular momentum?
I believe that any particle in linear motion must also have some angular momentum because all particles have spin. In the case of a photon the spin, wavelength and angular momentum all vary with the relative linear velocity. So in my point of view time itself is the ratio between relative linear and angular momentum.
Angular momentum is a measure of?
angular momentum is the measure of angular motion in a body.
How do you calculate angular momentum in a rotating system?
Angular momentum in a rotating system is calculated by multiplying the moment of inertia of the object by its angular velocity. The formula for angular momentum is L I, where L is the angular momentum, I is the moment of inertia, and is the angular velocity.
How do you increase the momentum of a photon?
To increase the momentum of a photon, you can either increase its frequency or velocity. This can be achieved by changing the energy of the photon, as momentum is directly proportional to the energy of a photon.
What quanties are needed to calculate angular momentum?
To calculate angular momentum, you need the object's moment of inertia, its angular velocity, and the axis of rotation. The formula for angular momentum is given by L = I * ω, where L is the angular momentum, I is the moment of inertia, and ω is the angular velocity.
How can linear momentum be converted to angular momentum?
Linear momentum can be converted to angular momentum through the principle of conservation of angular momentum. When an object with linear momentum moves in a curved path or rotates, its linear momentum can be transferred to create angular momentum. This conversion occurs when there is a change in the object's direction or speed of rotation.
What is the relation between torque and angular momentum?
Torque is the rate of change of angular momentum. When a torque is applied to an object, it causes a change in the object's angular momentum. Conversely, an object with angular momentum will require a torque to change its rotational motion.
Which component of linear momentum does not contribute to angular momentum?
Angular momentum is defined as the moment of linear momentum about an axis. So if the component of linear momentum is along the radius vector then its moment will be zero. So radial component will not contribute to angular momentum
How do solve conservation of angular momentum?
Usually you would use some fact you know about the physical system, and then write an equation that states that the total angular momentum "before" = the total angular momentum "after" some event.
Is angular momentum conserved in the system?
Yes, angular momentum is conserved in the system.
How angular momentum of the earth remain constant?
As there is no external torque acting on it, its angular momentum remains constant. This is according to the law of conservation of angular momentum
If a photon is reflected from the mirror then the change in momentum of photon is?
Assuming the photon is reflected into the same medium it came from (so we can ignore refraction), its momentum differs only directionally, its magnitude stays the same. The directional component of its momentum vector is always pointing in the direction it's propagating. Refraction is the means by which the magnitude component of the vector changes. The change in momentum of photon is nh/lambda.
