A particle of mass \(m\) moves in the XY plane with a velocity \(v\) along the straight line AB. If the angular momentum of the particle with respect to the origin \(O\) is \(L_A\) when it is at \(A\) and \(L_B\) when it is at \(B,\) then: 
         

1. \(L_A>L_B\)
2. \(L_A=L_B\)
3. the relationship between \(L_A\) and \(L_B\) depends upon the slope of the line \(AB.\)
