What IS Angular Momentum?

The video tutorial explores the concept of motion in the universe, focusing on objects that move without changing location, such as spinning or orbiting bodies. It introduces angular momentum as a measure of rotational motion, explaining how to calculate it using speed, mass, and the size of the circle. The tutorial highlights the conservation of angular momentum, using examples like the Earth's orbit around the Sun, and explains that this principle holds even if the Sun were to disappear. The video emphasizes the unbreakable nature of this law of physics.
