Dear Ganesh,
angular momentum is a conserved vector quantity that can be used to describe the overall state of a physical system. The angular momentum L of a particle with respect to some point of origin is
where r is the particle's position from the origin, p = mv is its linear momentum, and × denotes the cross product.
