$A$ triangular plate is shown in the figure. $A$ force $\overrightarrow{F} = 4 \hat{i} - 3 \hat{j}$ is applied at point $P$. The torques at point $P$ with respect to point $O$ and point $Q$ are:

  • A
    $-15-20 \sqrt{3}, 15-20 \sqrt{3}$
  • B
    $15+20 \sqrt{3}, 15-20 \sqrt{3}$
  • C
    $15-20 \sqrt{3}, 15+20 \sqrt{3}$
  • D
    $-15+20 \sqrt{3}, 15+20 \sqrt{3}$

The coordinates of a particle with respect to origin in a given reference frame is $(1, 1, 1) \ m$. If a force of $\vec{F} = \hat{i} - \hat{j} + \hat{k} \ N$ acts on the particle,then the magnitude of the torque (with respect to origin) in the $z$-direction is . . . . . . .

What does torque measure in terms of producing rotational motion?

$A$ particle of mass $m$ is moving along a trajectory given by $x = x_0 + a \cos \omega_1 t$ and $y = y_0 + b \sin \omega_2 t$. The torque acting on the particle about the origin at $t = 0$ is:

The torque of a force $\vec{F} = 5 \hat{i} + 3 \hat{j} - 7 \hat{k}$ about the origin is $\vec{\tau}$. If the force acts on a particle whose position vector is $\vec{r} = 2 \hat{i} + 2 \hat{j} + \hat{k}$,then the value of $\vec{\tau}$ will be:
