... Both internal and external forces can provide torque to individual particles. However, the internal forces do not generate net torque due to Newton’s third law. Let’s consider a two particle system where the two exert forces on each other. ...

However, if we examine every time frame, because the bullet moves very fast, even though at some point in time it intersects the wall, we may only sample it in front of the wall and behind it, b ...
