Question

Rewrite this measurement with a simpler unit, if possible.
8.3 kg•m^2/ s^2

Answer 1

Answer: 8.3 J

Explanation:

We have the following measurement:

$8.3 \frac{kg m^{2}}{s^{2}}$

Rearranging the units:

$8.3 \frac{kg m}{s^{2}}m$

Since 1 Newton is $1 N=1 \frac{kg m}{s^{2}}$:

$8.3 Nm$

Since 1 Joule is $1 J=1 Nm$:

$8.3 J$ This is the simplest form possible
