3.1 Conservation of angular momentum

Angular impulse of a torque in a given time is equal to the change in angular momentum during that time.

Angular impulse is denoted by a symbol $\overrightarrow J $.

If angular momentum of a body is changed by a torque $\left( {\overrightarrow \tau } \right)$ between time $t_1$ and $t_2$, then $$\overrightarrow J = \int\limits_{{t_1}}^{{t_2}} {\overrightarrow \tau dt} $$ or $$\begin{equation} \begin{aligned} \overrightarrow J = \int\limits_{{t_1}}^{{t_2}} {\frac{{d\overrightarrow L }}{{dt}}dt} \\ \overrightarrow J = \int\limits_{{L_1}}^{{L_2}} {d\overrightarrow L } \\ \overrightarrow J = {\overrightarrow L _2} - {\overrightarrow L _1} \\ \overrightarrow J = \Delta \overrightarrow L \\\end{aligned} \end{equation} $$
Angular impulse is also defined as the moment of linear impulse.

Mathematically, $$\overrightarrow J = \overrightarrow r \times \overrightarrow I $$
where,
$\overrightarrow I $: is the linear impulse
$\overrightarrow r $: is the radius vector about a given point
