You are standing 30 m due east of a 50 kg person who is running at a speed of 20 m/s due west. What is the magnitude of that person's angular momentum about you (in units of )

Hi there!

We can use the following equation for angular momentum:

[tex]\large\boxed{L = mrv}[/tex]

m = mass (kg)

r = distance from reference point (m)

v = velocity (m/s)

We can simply plug-and-chug the values provided in the question.

L = (50)(30)(20) = 30000 kgm²/s
