The units of planks constant are the same as that of :

Correct answer: A. Angular Momentum

  • A. Angular Momentum
  • B. Work
  • C. Force
  • D. Torque

Explanation

The unit of planck's constant is equivalent to that of angular momentum. Their dimensional formulas are the same but both physical quantities are not the same. Planck's constant gives the relation between energy and frequency

About Quantum Theory and Radiation

Quantum theory treats electromagnetic radiation as packets of energy called photons, with energy proportional to frequency through E equals hf. The topic covers Planck's hypothesis, photon momentum, the photoelectric effect, threshold frequency, work function and wave particle duality, distinguishing quantised energy exchange from classical continuous radiation.
