A particle moves on a straight line with a uniform velocity. Its angular momentum

We know that the angular momentum about a point is given by



Where,


m = mass of the object


v= velocity and


r= the perpendicular distance of the line of velocity from the point


Looking into the above figure, we can say, if the point lies on the line, r = 0, otherwise r cannot be zero.



Hence. is correct.



When the point lies on, radius r doesn’t become zero, and hence, angular moment remains as-



So option C, D are correct.
