If force $\vec{F} = 3 \hat{i} + 4 \hat{j} - 2 \hat{k}$ acts on a particle having position vector $\vec{r} = 2 \hat{i} + \hat{j} + 2 \hat{k}$,then the torque about the origin will be:

  • A
    $3 \hat{i} + 4 \hat{j} - 2 \hat{k}$
  • B
    $-10 \hat{i} + 10 \hat{j} + 5 \hat{k}$
  • C
    $10 \hat{i} + 5 \hat{j} - 10 \hat{k}$
  • D
    $10 \hat{i} + \hat{j} - 5 \hat{k}$
