Question

An equilateral triangle ABC has its centre at O as shown in figure. Three forces 10 N, 5N and F are acting along the sides AB, BC and AC. Magnitude of F so that the net torque about ‘O’ is zero is

  1. 2 N
  2. 15 N
  3. 5 N 
  4. 50 N

The correct answer is: 15 N


    Fd – 10d – 5d = 0;      F = 15 N
