B also could be right.

Pressure = Force/Area,
Stress = Force/Area,
Young's modulus = Stress/Strain,

Strain has no units.

So, Pressure and Young's modulus have same dimensions.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

You are correct, but you didn't agree with your idea. Young's modulus has the same unit with stress or pressure. So the answer is only choice C which has quantities with different dimensions. The rest all choices have the same dimensions.

Distinguish between impulses and momentum and how they are related?

@Mohan: Force = MLT^-2 and Pressure = Force/area = (MLT^-2)/(L^2).

Hence, Pressure = ML^-1T^-2.

Whereas,

Young's Modulus = Pressure/Length = ML^-2T^-2.

From Bohr theory, Angular momentum is equal to plank constant, ie L=nh where n= 1, 2, 3.

Also Angular momentum L = n * Dirac constant divided by 2 pie. Option C is the correct answer.

Impluse = ft.

Momentum of force = ft, so both are dimensionally identical.

Please reply me. If I am wrong.

impulse = ft = Ns is the unit.

Moment of a force = f * distance = Nm is the unit.

Due to the description of torque. I can say that the exact answer is 'C'. (FULLY SATISFIED).

Impulse = ft (the signal recieved by an object)

where f = newton and t = sec unit=(N/sec2).

While moment is returning effect an object makes or is de product of force * distance unit =(N/m2).

Energy and young modulus have same dimensions.
