Solution

The correct option is D 1 kg m sec2
According to Newton's second law of motion, force is equal to the rate of change in momentum.

Mathematically,
F=m(vu)tF=ma.

The force acting on a body of mass 1kg moving in an acceleration of 1 1 m/sec2 is equal to 1 N.

Therefore, 1 N is equal to 1 kg×1 m sec2=1 kg m sec2.
