Problem

A particle is acted upon by three forces F⃗1, F⃗2\vec F_1,\,\vec F_2 and F⃗3\vec F_3. For the particle to remain in translational equilibrium, which one of the following conditions must hold? a) F⃗1+F⃗2=F⃗3\vec F_1+\vec F_2=\vec F_3 b) ∣F⃗1∣=∣F⃗2∣=∣F⃗3∣|\vec F_1|=|\vec F_2|=|\vec F_3| c) F⃗1+F⃗2+F⃗3=0\vec F_1+\vec F_2+\vec F_3=\mathbf 0 d) F⃗1×(F⃗2+F⃗3)=0\vec F_1\times (\vec F_2+\vec F_3)=\mathbf 0
