Q166 / 200 · Manipal (MET) 2013 · Physics

Angular momentum is conserved

Correct answer
A
always
B
never
C
when external force is absent
D
when external torque is absent

Solution

According to law of conservation of angular momentum if there is no torque on the system, then the angular momentum remains constant.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
