Which one of the following expressions gives the correct magnitude of the torque τ\tau produced by a force FF acting at a point whose position vector from the chosen axis is rr and which makes an angle θ\theta with r\mathbf r? a) τ=Frcos⁡θ\tau = F r \cos\theta b) τ=Frsin⁡θ\tau = F r \sin\theta c) τ=Frtan⁡θ\tau = F r \tan\theta d) τ=Fr\tau = F r
