A meter stick is placed on a frictionless horizontal surface and is pinned, so that it is free to rotate about an axis through its 0−cm position, as shown in Figure 14.2. Two forces, F1 and F2, are applied to the meter stick as shown. If the magnitude of F1 = 250 N, F2 = 85 N, r1 = 35 cm, θ1 = 40∘, and θ2 = 60∘, what is the value of r2, such that the meter stick does not rotate? 66.4 cm 76.4 cm 85.0 cm 40.0 cm 79.2 cm

A meter stick is placed on a frictionless horizontal surface and is pinned, so that it is free to rotate about an axis through its 0 c m position, as shown in Figure 14.2. Two forces, F 1 and F 2 , are applied to the meter stick as shown. If the magnitude of F 1 = 250 N , F 2 = 85 N , r 1 = 35 c m , θ 1 = 40 , and θ 2 = 60 , what is the value of r 2 , such that the meter stick does not rotate? 66.4 c m 76.4 c m 85.0 c m 40.0 c m 79.2 c m
