Expert Solution
The Definition :

Like the relation between Linear Momentum (P) and Linear Velocity (v) is,

P=mv    (1)

where m is the mass of the body, analogously in rotational motion the relation between Angular Momentum (H) and Angular Velocity (ω) is,

H=Iω   (2)

 

Where I  is the moment of inertia of the body.
