A particle is situated at the origin of a coordinate system. The following forces begin to act on the particle simultaneously (Assuming particle is initially at rest)
${\vec F_1} = 5\hat i - 5\hat j + 5\hat k$ ${\vec F_2} = 2\hat i + 8\hat j + 6\hat k$
${\vec F_3} = - 6\hat i + 4\hat j - 7\hat k$ ${\vec F_4} = - \hat i - 3\hat j - 2\hat k$
Then the particle will move
