Solution

To determine which one of the following is not the unit of energy, we need to understand the units mentioned.

(a) Kilowatt: Kilowatt (kW) is a unit of power, not energy. Power measures the rate at which energy is transferred or converted.

(b) Kilowatt hour: Kilowatt hour (kWh) is a unit of energy. It represents the amount of energy consumed or produced over a period of one hour at a rate of one kilowatt.

(c) Joule: Joule (J) is the SI unit of energy. It is defined as the amount of work done when a force of one newton is applied over a distance of one meter.

(d) Newton meter: Newton meter (Nm) is also a unit of energy, commonly known as a joule. It represents the work done when a force of one newton is applied over a distance of one meter.

Based on the above explanations, the unit of energy that is not mentioned correctly is (a) Kilowatt.
