Find the torque of a force $\vec F = -3\hat i + \hat j + 5\hat k$ acting at the point $\vec r = 7\hat i + 3\hat j + \hat k$ with respect to the origin.

$A$ force $F_1 = A \hat{j}$ is applied to a point whose radius vector is $r_1 = a \hat{i}$, while a force $F_2 = B \hat{i}$ is applied to the point whose radius vector is $r_2 = b \hat{j}$. Both the radius vectors are determined relative to the origin of the coordinate axes $O$. The moment of the force relative to $O$ is

$A$ force $\vec F$ acts on a particle having position vector $\vec r$ (with respect to origin). It produces a torque $\vec \tau$ about the origin. Choose the correct option.

Which physical quantity plays the same role in rotational motion as force does in linear motion?

Three forces $F, 2F$ and $3F$ act on a rod $AB$ which is pivoted at $A$. The anticlockwise moments of forces $F, 2F$ and $3F$ about the pivot $A$ are respectively:
