How many joules are in a newton?
Understand the Problem
The question is asking about the relationship between joules and newtons, specifically how many joules correspond to one newton of force. Joules measure energy, while newtons measure force, and the relationship between them involves distance, as one joule is equal to one newton meter.
Answer
One joule equals one newton-meter.
One newton-meter is equal to one joule.
Answer for screen readers
One newton-meter is equal to one joule.
More Information
Joule and newton-meter are units that measure different concepts: energy/work and force applied over a distance, respectively.
Tips
Remember not to confuse newtons (a unit of force) with joules (a unit of energy).
