The torque of a force `vecF=-3hati+hatj+5hatk` acting at a point is `vectau`. If the position vector of the point vector of the point is `7hati+3hatj+hatk`, then `vectau` is :

A

`14hati - 38hatj + 16hatk`

B

`4 hati - hatj + 6hatk`

C

`-14hati+ 38hatj - 16hatk`

D

`-21hati + 3hatj + 5hatk`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Heree `tau=vec(r )xxvec(F)`
`tau=(7hati+3hatj+hatk)xx(-3hati+hatj+5hatk)`
`=-14hati-38hatj+16hatk`
