Calculate the angular momentum of the Earth:


(a) Calculate the magnitude of the translational angular momentum of the Earth relative to the center of the Sun. See


the data on inside back cover.


(b) Calculate the magnitude of the rotational angular momentum of the Earth. How does this compare to your result in


part (a)?


(The angular momentum of the Earth relative to the center of the Sun is the sum of the translational and rotational angular


momenta. The rotational axis of the Earth is tipped 23.5° away from a perpendicular to the plane of its orbit.)
