🎬calculate and display the angular velocity vector and the resulting angular momentum vector

The angular momentum and angular velocity vectors are not always aligned. This is different from linear motion, where linear momentum and velocity always point in the same direction. The reason for this misalignment is the moment of inertia tensor, which accounts for how an object's mass is distributed. When an object is not symmetrical, like our cube with different inertia values on each axis, its resistance to rotation varies depending on the axis. The tensor essentially transforms the angular velocity vector to produce the angular momentum vector, causing them to point in different directions.
