Sample 1difficulty 1/5
$2.0~\text{kg·m}^2$
- A
  $300~\text{kg·m}^2\text{/s}$
- B
  $7.5~\text{kg·m}^2\text{/s}$
- C
  $30~\text{kg·m}^2\text{/s}$
  check_circle
- D
  $17~\text{kg·m}^2\text{/s}$
Why
$L = I\omega = (2.0)(15) = 30~\text{kg·m}^2\text{/s}$

Sample 2difficulty 1/5
$Angular momentum has units$
- A
  $\text{kg/m}$
- B
  $\text{kg·m}^2/\text{s}$
  check_circle
- C
  $\text{kg·m}^2/\text{s}^2$
- D
  $\text{N·m}$
Why
$[L] = [I][\omega] = \text{kg·m}^2 \cdot \text{rad/s} = \text{kg·m}^2/\text{s}$

Sample 4difficulty 2/5
$0.50~\text{kg}$
- A
  $1.5~\text{kg·m}^2/\text{s}$
- B
  $2.4~\text{kg·m}^2/\text{s}$
- C
  $0.20~\text{kg·m}^2/\text{s}$
- D
  $0.60~\text{kg·m}^2/\text{s}$
  check_circle
Why
$L = m v r = (0.50)(3.0)(0.40) = 0.60~\text{kg·m}^2/\text{s}$
