If torque on a body is zero, then which is conserved

force
linear momentum
angular momentum
angular impulse

Solution:

Explanation:

  • Torque (
    ) is given by:
     

     

    τ=dLdt​where

    L is the angular momentum. 

  • If
    τ=0\tau = 0
     

    , then: 

    dLdt=0⇒L=constant\frac{dL}{dt} = 0 \Rightarrow L = \text{constant}This means angular momentum is conserved.
