Answer:

Find the dimension of each and every quantity in all the options to check whether they are the same or not. We can use any one formula of each identity to find its dimension.

Complete step by step solution:

To find the dimension of a quantity, we can use any formula related to that quantity but we will use the easiest ones to save time.

Force-

from Newton’s law of motion,

F=maF=ma

Dimension of force =[M][LT−2]=[MLT−2]=[M][LT−2]=[MLT−2]

Work done-

W=F×sW=F×s

Dimension of work=[MLT−2][L]=[ML2T−2]=[MLT−2][L]=[ML2T−2]

Momentum-

p=mvp=mv

Dimension of momentum=[M][LT1]=[MLT−1]=[M][LT1]=[MLT−1]

Impulse-

I=F×tI=F×t

Dimension of impulse=[MLT−2][T]=[
