Does a pendulum swing demonstrate angular momentum, linear, both, or neither?

0

I believe its both because during the swing the bob has a linear momentum vector with the swing. This creates an angular momentum vector out of the plane of the pendulum swing. Once it reaches its max height during the swing the force of gravity causes it to fall back the other way creating a torque vector perpendicular to plane of swing.
