Which pair does not have equal dimensions :

Which pair does not have equal dimensions :
A Energy and torque
B Force and impulse
C Angular momentum and Planck's constant
D Elastic modulus and pressure

Detailed Solution

Energy and torque: both $ML^2T^{-2}$; equal.
Force: $MLT^{-2}$; impulse = force $\times$ time: $MLT^{-1}$; not equal.
Angular momentum and Planck's constant: both $ML^2T^{-1}$; equal.
Elastic modulus and pressure: both $ML^{-1}T^{-2}$; equal.
So force and impulse do not have equal dimensions.
