You slide down a very slippery track. You gain speed as you travel downward and then as you slide back upward you slow down enough so that you reach just about the same height as before. This happens because of:
a) Conservation of Linear Momentum
b) Conservation of Energy
c) Conservation of Angular Momentum
d) Conservation of Mass
Definition Definition Product of the moment of inertia and angular velocity of the rotating body: (L) = Iω Angular momentum is a vector quantity, and it has both magnitude and direction. The magnitude of angular momentum is represented by the length of the vector, and the direction is the same as the direction of angular velocity.
