(Tricky!) A bowling ball rolls on the floor at a constant velocity away from you. What is the approximate direction of the ball's total angular momentum around your head? (Hint: How fast do the ball's particles move about the ball's center of mass compared to the speed of the ball's center of mass as it moves away from you? Think about it.)
A) Upward.
B) Downward.
C) To your left.
D) To your right.
E) Away from you.
F) It depends on the ball's moment of inertia.
G) It depends on the ball's rotation rate.
