The angular momentum is $=1357.2kgm^2s^-1$

The angular momentum is $L=Iomega$

The mass of the rod is $m=8kg$

The length of the rod is $L=6m$

The moment of inertia of a rod, rotating about the center is

$I=1/12*mL^2$

$=1/12*8*6^2= 24 kgm^2$

The angular velocity is

$omega=2pif=2pixx9=18pirads^-1$

The angular momentum is

$L=Iomega=24xx18pi=1357.2kgm^2s^-1$
