A square metal plate with mass M = 6. 00 [kg] and side length 3.00 [m] is pivoted about an axis through point 0 at its center and perpendicular to the plate. Three forces of magnitude F1 = 36.0 [N], F2 = 24. 0 [N], and F3 = 40.0 [N] act on the plate as shown. What is the net torque on the square plate due to these forces? 3.00 m 30° , 3.00 m
