geometry - Understanding Euler's rotation theorem



According to Euler's rotation theorem, simultaneous rotation along a number of stationary axes at the same time is impossible. If two rotations are forced at the same time, a new axis of rotation will appear. - wikipedia



so can we say that the new axis of rotation is just the resultant of the previous too ?


Can you kindly explain this to me ? And show ( with some examples ) how can we mathematically predict this new axis of rotation ?

Understanding Stagnation point in pitot fluid

What is stagnation point in fluid mechanics. At the open end of the pitot tube the velocity of the fluid becomes zero.But that should result...
