Detailed Solution

The given statement is true.
Concept- Let's first define what labour entails. Work is the measurement of energy that
happens when an object moves in the direction of an applied external force. It is shown as the
result of force and displacement. Joule is the SI unit of work.
When one newton of force is applied to an object and results in a displacement of one metre
in the direction of the force, the amount of work done is measured in joules. A joule is the
amount of energy created when one ampere of current is carried through one ohm of
resistance in one second. In this case, one watt-second is equal to one joule. James Prescott
Joule, a scientist, is the name of the joule, a SI unit of labour.
Hence, the given statement is true.
