Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
Given, fundamental quantities are momentum (p), area and time ( 
).
We can write energy 
as
where, 
is dimensionless constant of proportionality.
Dimensions of 
and 
Putting all the dimensions, we get
By principle of homogeneity of dimensions,
