Chapter 19 Angular Momentum
www.lehman.educoncept of angular momentum for a point-like particle of mass m with linear momentum p about a point S, defined by the equation L S = r S × p, (19.1.2) where r S is the vector from the point S to the particle. We will show in this chapter that the torque about the point S acting on the particle is equal to the rate of change of the

ocw.mit.eduConservation of Linear Momentum We see from equation (1) that if the resultant force on a particle is zero during an interval of time, then its linear momentum L must remain constant. Since equation (1) is a vector quantity, we can have situations in which only some components of the resultant force are zero.

Quantum Physics III Chapter 2: Hydrogen Fine Structure
ocw.mit.eduthis is the azimuthal quantum number for orbital angular momentum. Since we are not combining the electron spin to its orbital angular momentum, the states formthe “uncoupled basis”: Uncoupled basis quantum numbers: (n,ℓ,mℓ,ms). (2.1.14) The states are completely specified by these quantum numbers. As we let those quantum
