Four forces act on a stationary particle at the origin of a coordinate system: $\overrightarrow{F_1} = 3\hat{i} - \hat{j} + 9\hat{k}$,$\overrightarrow{F_2} = 2\hat{i} - 2\hat{j} + 16\hat{k}$,$\overrightarrow{F_3} = 9\hat{i} + \hat{j} + 18\hat{k}$,and $\overrightarrow{F_4} = \hat{i} + 2\hat{j} - 18\hat{k}$. In which plane will the particle move under the influence of these forces?
