The planet earth orbits around the sun and also spins around its own axis. 33% part (a) calculate the angular momentum of the earth in its orbit around the sun in kg • m2/s

The angular momentum can be found by the formula:
L = m · v · r

Where:
m = mass of Earth = 5.972×10²⁴ kg
v = velocity of Earth around the Sun = 2.978×10⁴ m/s
r = distance from Sun = 1.496×10¹¹ m

Now, apply the formula:
L = 5.972×10²⁴ · 2.978×10⁴ · 1.496×10¹¹ 
   = 2.661×10⁴⁰ kg·m²/s

The angular momentum of Earth in its motion around the Sun is 2.661×10⁴⁰ kg·m²/s.
