$A$ particle of mass $m$ is moving along a trajectory given by $x = x_0 + a \cos \omega_1 t$ and $y = y_0 + b \sin \omega_2 t$. The torque acting on the particle about the origin at $t = 0$ is:

  • A
    $m y_0 a \omega_1^2 \hat{k}$
  • B
    $m (-x_0 b + y_0 a) \omega_1^2 \hat{k}$
  • C
    $-m (-x_0 b \omega_2^2 + y_0 a \omega_1^2) \hat{k}$
  • D
    Zero
