Components for System Linear Momentum, Angular Momentum, and Center of Mass Measures
You can measure one of these components for system linear momentum, angular momentum, or center of mass measures:
Mag—The magnitude of the linear momentum, angular momentum, or center of mass location.
X—The component of the linear momentum, angular momentum, or center of mass in the X direction of the selected coordinate system.
Y—The component of the linear momentum, angular momentum, or center of mass in the Y direction of the selected coordinate system.
Z—The component of the linear momentum, angular momentum, or center of mass in the Z direction of the selected coordinate system.
The measures are reported relative to the ground body WCS.
