Which one of the following is bigger unit of work?

Correct answer: D. Kilo watt hour

  • A. 10 watt hour
  • B. 10 electron volts
  • C. Electron volt
  • D. Kilo watt hour

Explanation

10 Wh = 10×3600 Ws = 3.6 ×104 J 10 eV = 10×1.6×10-19 J = 1.6×10-18 J 1 kWh = 3.6×106 J Hence, the correct option for the bigger unit of work is kilowatt-hour (kWh), as it represents a larger amount of energy compared to the other options.

About Work and Energy

Work transfers energy when a force causes displacement, while kinetic energy, gravitational potential energy and power describe motion, position and the rate of energy transfer. The work-energy theorem links net work with change in kinetic energy, and efficiency accounts for energy losses rather than treating them as energy destruction.
