MCQ
Which of the following physical quantities is different from others?
  • A
    Work
  • B
    Kinetic energy
  • C
    Force
  • D
    Potential energy

Answer

  1. Force

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by the body by virtue of its motion and potential energy is the energy possessed by the virtue of its position and shape. Energy is required to do work.

Hence work, kinetic energy, potential energy all can be measured using same unit, i.e joule.

So, force is the physical quantity here which is different from others as given by product of mass and acceleration. S.I unit of force is N (newton).
