If a stationary mass is acted on by several forces F1 , F2 , F3 ,.. , then in order to NOT
translate,
the net force must be zero.
Fnet Ftotal F F1 F2 F3 0
F1x F2x F3x 0 , F1y F2y F3y 0
Even though the net force is zero, the object might not be in static equilibrium.
Here is a case (two forces acting on a bar) where the net force is zero, but the
forces cause the object to rotate:
Remember torque:
torque (pronounced "tork") is a kind of "rotational force": r F
