Final answer:

The correct SI form representation of mN/ns with an appropriate prefix is MN/s. This is because 'm' is a prefix for milli (10^-3) and 'n' is a prefix for nano (10^-9). Simplification gives 10^6 N/s, and the prefix for 10^6 is 'M' (mega).

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking for the correct SI form representation of mN/ns using an appropriate prefix. The prefix 'm' stands for milli, denoting 10^-3, while the prefix 'n' represents nano, indicating 10^-9. So, mN/ns would equivalently be 10^-3 N/10^-9 s. After simplifying, this gives 10^6 N/s. The appropriate prefix for 10^6 in SI units is 'M', standing for mega. Therefore, the correct representation in SI form is MN/s. Thus, the answer is e) MN/s.
