For large pipe, more than 12 inch in diameter, the nominal diameters are the actual outside diameters; for small pipe the nominal diameters does not correspond to any actual dimension.

Nominal pipe size refers to only the outside diameter (OD) of a pipe making it somewhat vague.
For example, when we say pipe size is 2 NPS, it refers to all the pipes having 2.375-inch (or 60.3 mm) as outside diameter irrespective of wall thickness and thus the inside diameter.

B is the correct answer.
According to Perry's HB, T10-22 Properties of Steel Pipe, all pipes with the same nominal pipe size have the same outside diameter.

I think nominal diameter means internal diameter.

Nominal diameter is internal diameter then how the answer is B?

I think it is A.

Yes it is A, because outside diameter depends upon schedule number.

Nominal diameter is out side diameter only. But also varies with pipe line sizes also.

A is the right answer.

Nominal size of the pipe is outside dia only irrespective of thickness and inner dia.
