Questions  

A mass M is moving with a constant velocity parallel to x-axis. Its angular momentum with respect to origin

a
is zero
b
remains constant
c
goes on increasing
d
goes on decreasing

detailed solution

Correct option is B

Angular momentum about a point is equal to the product of perpendicular distance of direction of momentum from point of reference and momentumAs Perpendicular distance from origin and the speed   remain same,  angular momentum  will remain constant.
