We would like to compare the angular momentum of Mars about its axis of rotation with that of Earth’s. The mass of Mars is 11% that of Earth, with a radius 53% that of Earth, and a rotational period 103% that of Earth. Assuming both planets to be uniform spheres calculate the ratio of the angular momentum of Mars to that of Earth.
