The unit of energy is a derived quantity. why​

Energy is the tendency to do work.

Explanation:

Energy unit is Joule

1 Joule means 1 kgm²/s²

Energy =Kinertic energy

=1/2 mv²

unit= kgm²/s²

So energy unit is derived unit.

It was given the name Newton(N). From this ,the derived quantity of energy is defined,as the work produced when the unit of force causes a displacement equal to the unit of length of its point of application along its direction. It was given the name Joule(J).

So, the unit of a energy is a derived quantity.
