Angular momentum- rotating rod
So my first approach was to use L=Iw. Computing I, moment of inertia,I=$$I_{center} = \frac{md^2}{4}$$ $$L_{center} = I_{center} \omega = \frac{md^2\omega}{4}$$ And hence I obtain an answer. However, when I further thought about the question, I realised that L is a vector and I can probably do...- palaphys
