Today's physics lecture covered angular momentum, including its definition as the product of the moment of inertia and angular velocity. Key concepts discussed include torque causing rotation, angular momentum being conserved when the net external torque is zero, and the right hand rule for determining the direction of angular momentum. Examples included two disks rotating together due to conservation of angular momentum, and a person on a stool changing their angular velocity and kinetic energy by pulling in their arms due to a change in moment of inertia.
