$A$ slab is subjected to two forces $\vec F_1$ and $\vec F_2$ of the same magnitude $F$ as shown in the figure. Force $\vec F_2$ is in the $XY$-plane,while force $\vec F_1$ acts along the $z$-axis at the point $(2\hat i + 3\hat j)$. The moment of these forces about point $O$ is:

The moment of the force,$\overrightarrow{F} = 4\hat{i} + 5\hat{j} - 6\hat{k}$ at point $(2, 0, -3)$,about the point $(2, -2, -2)$,is given by

$A$ force $F_1 = A \hat{j}$ is applied to a point whose radius vector is $r_1 = a \hat{i}$, while a force $F_2 = B \hat{i}$ is applied to the point whose radius vector is $r_2 = b \hat{j}$. Both the radius vectors are determined relative to the origin of the coordinate axes $O$. The moment of the force relative to $O$ is
