$ABC$ is an equilateral triangle with $O$ as its centre. $\vec F_1, \vec F_2$ and $\vec F_3$ represent three forces acting along the sides $AB, BC$ and $AC$ respectively. If the total torque about $O$ is zero,then the magnitude of $\vec F_3$ is

  • A
    $({F_1} + {F_2})/2$
  • B
    $2({F_1} + {F_2})$
  • C
    $({F_1} + {F_2})$
  • D
    $({F_1} - {F_2})$
