MCQ practice · SSC Physics Board questions · Chapter 4: Work, Power and Energy
The unit of energy-
- i. joule
- ii. newton-metre
- iii. watt
Think it through first, then pick an option.
- a i and ii
- b i and iii
- c ii and iii
- d i, ii and iii
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: a i and ii
i true: The unit of energy is the joule. ii true: 1 J = 1 N m, so the newton-metre is also a unit of energy. iii false: The watt is the unit of power (J/s), not of energy.
Why the other options are wrong
- b i and iii: This is not the answer; the right combination is i and ii. i true: The unit of energy is the joule. ii true: 1 J = 1 N m, so the newton-metre is also a unit of energy. iii false: The watt is the unit of power (J/s), not of energy.
- c ii and iii: This is not the answer; the right combination is i and ii. i true: The unit of energy is the joule. ii true: 1 J = 1 N m, so the newton-metre is also a unit of energy. iii false: The watt is the unit of power (J/s), not of energy.
- d i, ii and iii: This is not the answer; the right combination is i and ii. i true: The unit of energy is the joule. ii true: 1 J = 1 N m, so the newton-metre is also a unit of energy. iii false: The watt is the unit of power (J/s), not of energy.
