question 23

Multiple Choice

Two nonparallel vectors determine a plane. Relative to the plane determined by the position vector where the force is applied and the force vector, in which direction is the torque vector about the origin?

• A)perpendicular to the plane
• B)in the plane, but perpendicular to both the position vector and the velocity vector
• C)in the plane, but perpendicular to the velocity vector
• D)in a direction dependent on the magnitudes of the velocity and position vectors
• E)in the plane, but perpendicular to the position vector
