Let the point $A$ divide the line segment joining the points $P(-1, -1, 2)$ and $Q(5, 5, 10)$ internally in the ratio $r : 1$ $(r > 0)$. If $O$ is the origin and $(\overrightarrow{OQ} \cdot \overrightarrow{OA}) - \frac{1}{5}|\overrightarrow{OP} \times \overrightarrow{OA}|^2 = 10$,then the value of $r$ is:

  • A
    $14$
  • B
    $3$
  • C
    $\sqrt{7}$
  • D
    $7$
