The Attempt at a Solution
THe answer given is B.
I can understand why the resultant force is not zero as the field is not uniform. but for a couple, shouldn't the forces be equal. so how can B be correct?
also, at some point, the rod will be horizontal. won't the resultant force be non-zero and act horizontally while the torque is zero. the rod would stay horizontal?
can someone help if I'm misunderstanding something
