We know that

= r Fsin Φ     ----------------------------------------(1)

When, force is applied in a direction parallel to.

 Φ = 0° or 180°

Therefore sin Φ=0

Substituting in eq(1), we get

Torque () = 0

Therefore, Torque of the force is zero. So, the door cannot be rotated by applying force in a direction parallel to the plank of the door.
