Lecture 3: Equilibrium of many-particle system: Moment

1. Cross product of two vectors

2. Equilibrium of many-particle system

1. Defition of moment vector
2. Mathematica deduction
   
   motivation: establish the concept of moment from the requirement of the Newton's laws when applied to many-particle system.

Reference: why the definition of a moment needs a cross product?
