  • Spin Angular Monentum

    So the numbers for the total angular angular momentum are (remember that the number must be positive) j = 0,1 Now if the maximal l associated with the orbital angular momentum is l = 3 Then the maximal angular momentum is j_max = l +

  • Conservation of angular momentum of a Large Turntable

    Now the *child's* angular momentum is: Lc = Ic*wf = m*R^2*wf Thus the final angular momentum of the system is the sum of the turntable and the child's contributions: Lf = (I*wf)+(m*R^2*wf) = wf*(I+mR^2) Using angular momentum conservation:
