Question:
Under what condition(s) is the angular momentum of a rotating body, such as a spinning ice skater, conserved?
(a) Each external force acting on the body must be zero.
(b) Each external force and each external torque acting on the body must be zero.
(c) Each external force may be nonzero, but the sum of the forces must be zero.
(d) Each external torque may be nonzero, but the sum of the torques must be zero.

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
