Verified by Toppr

MKS is the system of units based on measuring lengths in meters, mass in kilograms, and time in seconds.
A system in which a small number of basic units are defined from which all others in the system are derived by multiplication or division only is called coherent system.
MKS system is coherent system of units.

Unit of energy is joule in SI units for all forms of energy.
