### Rotational Dynamics Concept – Torque and EquilibriumAs shown in the figure below, we have a square one meter on a side that is free to rotate about an axis perpendicular to the plane of the square, a distance \( a \) from one side and a distance \( b \) from the other side.**Diagrams:**1. **Figure (a)** - Square with forces \( \vec{F}_1 \) and \( \vec{F}_2 \) applied at diagonally opposite corners. - \( \vec{F}_1 \) is directed upwards on the left corner. - \( \vec{F}_2 \) is directed downwards on the right corner.2. **Figure (b)** - Square with forces \( \vec{F}_1' \) and \( \vec{F}_2' \) applied at diagonally opposite corners. - \( \vec{F}_1' \) is directed upwards on the left corner. - \( \vec{F}_2' \) is directed to the right on the right corner.Both diagrams involve a square viewed in a two-dimensional plane with the forces clearly marked, indicating the direction of forces along the sides of the square. These forces contribute to the rotational torque about the specified axis.### Mathematical Explanation:Two forces, \( \vec{F}_1 \) and \( \vec{F}_2 \), are applied to diagonally opposite corners, and act along the sides of the square, first as shown in case (a) and then as shown in case (b) of the drawing. In each case, the net torque produced by the forces is zero. If the magnitude of \( \vec{F}_1 \) is 6 times that of \( \vec{F}_2 \), find the distances \( a \) and \( b \) that locate the axis. It should be noted that \( a \) and \( b \) are not drawn to scale.#### Calculations:- Let \( \vec{F}_2 = F \)- Then \( \vec{F}_1 = 6F \)**Determine Distances \( a \) and \( b \):**\[ a = \_ \_ \_ \_ \_ \] m\[ b = \_ \_ \_ \_ \_ \] mBy solving the respective torque equilibrium

Condition for equilibrium: Torque and force satisfy; total torque and force are zero. Comment about this condition (statement-1): It shows that even if you apply just a tiny force, you can balance the torque due to a very large force, provided that you make your lever-arm sufficiently long. This fact led a well-known mathematician of long ago to claim that he could move the earth if given a long enough lever-arm. Case-1: forces F are applied upward at the ends of a stick of length L, and a force 2F is applied downward at the midpoint. The stick will not rotate (by symmetry), and it will not translate (because the net force is zero). If we wish, we may consider the stick to have a pivot at the left end. If we then erase the force F on the right end and replace it with a force 2F at the middle, then the two 2F forces in the middle will cancel, so the stick will remain at rest. Therefore, we see that a force F applied at a distance L from a pivot is equivalent to a force 2F applied at a…
