O is the centre of an equilateral triangle ABC. F1,F2 and F3 are three forces acting along the sides AB, BC and AC as shown in figure. What should be the magnitude of F3so that total torque about O is zero

a
F→3=F→1+F→2
b
F→3=F→1−F→2
c
F→3=F→1+2F2→
d
Not possible

detailed solution

Correct option is A

Total torque about O =F→1d+F→2d−F→3d=0⇒F→3=F→1+F→2
