Angular Momentum of a Satellite Calculator

Angular momentum ($L$) of a satellite is the product of its mass ($m$), orbital velocity ($v$), orbital radius ($r$), and the sine of the angle ($\theta$) between the velocity vector and the radius vector

• $m$ is the mass of the satellite.
• $v$ is the orbital velocity of the satellite.
• $r$ is the orbital radius (distance from the center of the body being orbited).
• $\theta$ is the angle between the velocity vector and the radius vector.
