3 A particle is in equilibrium under the action of three forces in newtons given by
$$\mathbf { F } _ { 1 } = \binom { 8 } { 0 } , \quad \mathbf { F } _ { 2 } = \binom { 2 a } { - 3 a } \quad \text { and } \quad \mathbf { F } _ { 3 } = \binom { 0 } { b } .$$
Find the values of the constants \(a\) and \(b\).
