Answer:

D. angular momentum.

Step-by-step explanation:

The angular momentum is defined as follows:


L=I\omega

Where
L is angular momentum,
I is moment of inertia and
\omega is the angular velocity

Analyzing the units:

The units of
I are
[kgm^2]

The units of
\omega are
[rad/s]

And when we miltiply them we get


[kgm^2][rad/s]=[kgm^2/s]

So the anwer is angular momentum.
