alleryThe SI unit of moment of force is:
ANewton per metre
BPascal metre
CJoule per metre
DNewton metre
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Newton metre
1. Moment of force is the product of force (in Newtons) and perpendicular distance (in metres).
2. Therefore the unit is N × m, written as Newton metre (Nm).
3. Joule and Pascal are different physical units, so the other options do not apply.
