To find the torque of a force \( \mathbf{F} = (2\hat{i} + 3\hat{j} + 4\hat{k}) \, \text{N} \) acting at point \( P(2 \, \text{m}, -3 \, \text{m}, 6 \, \text{m}) \) about point \( O \) whose position vector is \( \mathbf{R_O} = (2\hat{i} - 5\hat{j} + 3\hat{k}) \, \text{m} \), we will follow these steps:
### Step 1: Determine the position vectors
First, we need to define the position vectors for points \( P \) and \( O \):
- Position vector of point \( P \):
\[
\mathbf{R_P} = 2\hat{i} - 3\hat{j} + 6\hat{k} \, \text{m}
\]
