The aim of this experiment is to see if forces can be added using the same
method. (If forces can be added in the same way as displacements, we are
probably justified in assuming that all vector quantities can be added this
way.)

If the point O is stationary, then the three forces are in equilibrium. This
means that force A is balancing the combined effects of forces B and C.
Similarly, force B balances the combined effects of forces A and C (or force
C balances the combined effects of forces A and B).
