 Momentum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Momentum is conserved in an electrodynamic system (it may change from momentum in the fields to mechanical momentum of moving parts).
The amount of momentum that an object has depends on two variables: the mass and the velocity of the moving object in the frame of reference.
For example the momentum of a 5-kg bowling ball would have to be described by the statement that it was moving westward at 2 m/s.

 Angular momentum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In physics the angular momentum of an object with respect to a reference point is a measure for the extent to which, and the direction in which, the object rotates about the reference point.
Under this formalism, angular momentum is the 2-form Noether charge associated with rotational invariance (As a result, angular momentum isn't conserved for general curved spacetimes, unless it happens to be asymptotically rotationally invariant).
In particular, if the body rotates about an axis, then the angular momentum with respect to a point on the axis is related to the mass of the object, the angular velocity and the distance of the mass to the axis.

 Conservation of Momentum
Momentum is defined to be the mass of an object multiplied by the velocity of the object.
The conservation of momentum is a fundamental concept of physics along with the conservation of energy and the conservation of mass.
Dealing with momentum is more difficult than dealing with mass and energy because momentum is a vector quantity having both a magnitude and a direction.

 Conservation of Angular Momentum
As the adjacent figure illustrates the magnitude of the angular momentum in this case is L = mvr, where L is the angular momentum, m is the mass of the small object, v is the magnitude of its velocity, and r is the separation between the objects.
Thus, conservation of angular momentum demands that a decrease in the separation r be accompanied by an increase in the velocity v, and vice versa.
