      The position of COM is mass weighted average of the positions of particles.

      The first condition of equilibrium is that the net force in all directions must be zero.

The sign of the torque is found using the right hand rule. The net torque can be found from summing the individual torques about a given axis.

      We will now show that the torque about a point S is equal to the time derivative of the angular momentum about S.
    • https://phys.libretexts.org/Bookshelves/University_Physics/Physics_(Boundless)/9%3A_Rotational_Kinematics_Angular_Momentum_and_Energy/9.6%3A_Conservation_of_Angular_Momentum
      The law of conservation of angular momentum states that when no external torque acts on an object, no change of angular momentum will occur.

      When solving static problems, you need to identify all forces and torques, confirm directions, solve equations, and check the results.
