Let L be the angular momentum of a system of particles relative to a frame with origin at O, and let L' be the angular momentum of the system relative to a frame with origin O' at the CM. Prove that L = L'+R x P, (1) MR with M the total where R is the position vector of O' relative to O and P = mass of the system.
