Answer Key / Explanation : (d) -

(d)

When particle moves with constant velocity  then its linear momentum has some finite value

Angular momentum  Linear momentum  Perpendicular distance of line of action of linear momentum form the point of rotation (d)

So if  then , but if  then  may be zero. So we can conclude that angular momentum of a particle moving with constant velocity is not always zero
