Solution

The correct option is B angular momentum
Angular momentum is the measure of turning motion of a body. Angular momentum is a measure of the linear momentum and the perpendicular distance of its line of action from the axis of rotation. It is a vector quantity.
In the case of heat, time and work, they are scalar quantities since they do not have direction.
