Bah,I'm soconfused. This is not clearly stated in my textbook (because it'sconceptual.)

Is itpossible for the rigid object to be in rotational motion about afixed axis if the net torque equals zero?

A rotational axis is directed perpendicular to the plane of asquare and is located as shown in the drawing. Two forces, 1 and 2,are applied to diagonally opposite corners, and act along the sidesof the square, first as shown in part a and then as shown in part bof the drawing. In each case the net torque produced by the forcesis zero. The square is one meter on a side, and the magnitude of 2is 6 times that of 1. Find the distances a and b that locate theaxis. Note that a and b are not drawn to scale.
a = _____ m
b = _____m
