of torque about an anis is ambiguous

EQUILIBRIUM OF A STILL RIGID BODY
Recall that we showed for
any system
of pastille that F dildt Now
if a rigid body is still I both
velocity and acceleration is zero for
every particle then its angular
momentum is constantly jus
about every point of the frame
from which it appears still Thus
