Per NCERT, what is 1 NEWTON of force formally defined as?
AThe weight of a person
BEqual to 1 joule
C1 newton = 1 kg
DThe force that produces an acceleration of 1 m/s² on an object of mass 1 kg
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. The force that produces an acceleration of 1 m/s² on an object of mass 1 kg
Per NCERT §6.5, 1 N = 1 kg × 1 m/s² = 1 kg m s⁻² (per Newton's Second Law).
