Solution

Angular momentum is given by the cross product of the position vector and the linear momentum. The magnitude of the angular momentum is given by L = rpsin(θ), where r is the magnitude of the position vector, p is the magnitude of the linear momentum, and θ is the angle between the position vector and the linear momentum.

The sine function has its minimum value at 0 degrees. Therefore, the angular momentum is minimum when the angle between the position vector and the linear momentum is 0 degrees.
