AP Physics 1
5.3 Torque

I. Force \(\vec{F}_A\) has magnitude \(2F\) and is directed perpendicular to the horizontal leg.
II. Force \(\vec{F}_B\) has magnitude \(4F\) and makes an angle of \(30^\circ\) with the vertical leg.
III. Force \(\vec{F}_C\) has magnitude \(2F\) and is directed perpendicular to the vertical leg.
Which of the following correctly ranks the magnitudes of the torques \(\tau_A\), \(\tau_B\), and \(\tau_C\) exerted by each force about pivot \(P\)?
