16. Angular Momentum

When solid sphere 4 m in diameter spins around its central axis at 120 RPM, it has 1,000 kg m² / s in angular momentum. Calculate the sphere's mass.

A composite disc is built from a solid disc and a concentric, thick-walled hoop, as shown below. The inner disc has mass 4 kg and radius 2 m. The outer disc (thick-walled) has mass 5 kg, inner radius 2 m, and outer radius 3 m. The two discs spin together and complete one revolution every 3 s. Calculate the system's angular momentum about its central axis.

Which of the following best describes the difference between linear momentum and angular momentum?
