Just as the relationship between the speed ($v$) and the angular Speed ($\omega$) with the radius ($r$) is expressed by the equation:
| $ v = r \omega $ |
we can establish a relationship between the angular Momentum ($L$) and the moment ($p$) in the context of translation. However, in this case, the multiplicative factor is not the arm ($r$), but rather the moment ($p$). This relationship is expressed as:
| $ L = I \omega $ |

Examples
As with the relationship between linear velocity and angular velocity,
| $ v = r \omega $ |
we can establish a connection between angular momentum and translational momentum. However, in this scenario, it's the radius that multiplies the momentum, not the angular momentum, which is:
| $ \vec{L} = \vec{r} \times \vec{p} $ |
.

The moment ($p$) was defined as the product of the inertial Mass ($m_i$) and the speed ($v$), which is equal to:
| $ p = m_i v $ |
The analogue of the speed ($v$) in the case of rotation is the instantaneous Angular Speed ($\omega$), therefore, the equivalent of the moment ($p$) should be a the angular Momentum ($L$) of the form:
| $ L = I \omega $ |
.
the inertial Mass ($m_i$) is associated with the inertia in the translation of a body, so the moment of Inertia ($I$) corresponds to the inertia in the rotation of a body.

The angular Momentum ($L$) is the analogue of the moment ($p$). Therefore, just as in translational motion it corresponds to the product of the inertial Mass ($m_i$) and the speed ($v$), in rotational motion it is obtained from the moment of Inertia ($I$) and the angular Speed ($\omega$), according to the relation:
| $ L = I \omega $ |

In one dimension, the angular Momentum ($L$) together with the arm ($r$) and the moment ($p$) equals
| $ L = r p $ |
the angular Momentum ($L$) can be generalized to more dimensions as the angular Momentum (Vector) ($vec{L}$). Since both parameters the radius (vector) ($\vec{r}$) and the momento (vector) ($\vec{p}$) are vectorial, the definition of the angular Momentum (Vector) ($vec{L}$) is constructed through a cross product in the form:
| $ \vec{L} = \vec{r} \times \vec{p} $ |
