Problem

Torque produced by a force acting on a rigid body about a given axis is equal to (a) the product of the force magnitude and the distance between the axis and the point of application of the force (b) the product of the force magnitude and the perpendicular distance from the axis to the line of action of the force (c) the product of the component of the force parallel to the line joining the point of application to the axis and that distance (d) the product of the force magnitude and the distance measured along the line of action of the force
