Are Linear and Angular Momentum Conserved during this Collision?

The video tutorial explores the concepts of linear and angular momentum conservation during a collision between a point particle and a wooden board. It discusses the conditions under which linear momentum is not conserved due to external forces at the pivot point, while angular momentum is conserved due to the absence of net external torque. The tutorial uses both directional analysis and equations to explain these principles, emphasizing the role of internal and external forces and torques.
