Moment of momentum is called:

1. Torque
2. Impulse
3. couple
4. Angular momentum

Correct answer: Angular momentum

Solution

Moment of momentum is the quantity that measures rotational motion, which is called angular momentum. Torque and impulse are related to changing momentum, not the momentum itself.
