$A$ triangular plate is shown in the figure. $A$ force $\overrightarrow{F} = 4 \hat{i} - 3 \hat{j}$ is applied at point $P$. The torques at point $P$ with respect to point $O$ and point $Q$ are:

What is the torque of the force $\vec{F} = (2\hat{i} - 3\hat{j} + 4\hat{k}) \text{ N}$ acting at the point $\vec{r} = (3\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + 3\hat{k}) \text{ m}$ about the origin?

The vector sum of a system of non-collinear forces acting on a rigid body is given to be nonzero. If the vector sum of all the torques due to the system of forces about a certain point is found to be zero,does this mean that it is necessarily zero about any arbitrary point?

$A$ force $F = 2.0\,N$ acts on a particle $P$ in the $xz-$ plane. The force $F$ is parallel to the $x-$ axis. The particle $P$ (as shown in the figure) is at a distance $3\,m$ from the origin,and the line joining $P$ with the origin makes an angle of $30^\circ$ with the $x-$ axis. The magnitude of the torque on $P$ with respect to the origin $O$ (in $N-m$) is:
