Question

$Newton-meter$ is the SI unit of

• A. Thrust
• B. Pressure
• C. Torque
• D. Work

Answer 1

The correct option is C

Torque

Explanation for correct option:

C: Torque

1. Torque is also called the moment of force
2. Moment of force is defined as the product of the force applied and the distance between the pivot and the point of application of the force
3. $Newton-meter$ is the SI unit of torque.

Explanation for incorrect options:

A: Thrust

The SI unit of thrust is $Newton\left(N\right)$.

B: Pressure

The SI unit of pressure is $Newton/mete{r}^2(N/m^2)$.

D: Work

The SI unit of work is $Joule\left(J\right)$.

Hence, option C is correct.
