Why are the components of position vectors along the axis of rotation not needed for determining the torque in a rigid body?

The torque due to the force $\vec{F} = (2 \hat{i} + \hat{j} + 2 \hat{k})$ about the origin,acting on a particle whose position vector is $\vec{r} = (\hat{i} + \hat{j} + \hat{k})$,is:

Part of the tuning arrangement of a radio consists of a wheel which is acted on by two parallel constant forces as shown in the figure. If the wheel rotates just once, the work done will be about (diameter of the wheel = $0.05\ m$). (in $J$)
