The long side of the rectangle is twice as long as the short side. An axis of ro- tation is shown perpendicular to the plane of the rectangle at its center. A third force (not shown in the drawing) is applied to cor- ner A, directed along the short side of the rectangle (either toward B or away from B), such that the piece of wood is at equilib- rium.

In a tug-of-war game on one campus, 15 students pull on a rope at both ends in an effort to displace the central knot to one side or the other. Two students pull with force 196 N each to the light, four students pull with force 98 N each to the left, five students pull with force 62 N each to the left, three students pull with force 150 N each to the right, and one student pulls with force 250 N to the left.
