The correct answer is: (iii) (iv) (i) (ii)
Dimensions of Pa-s is
$\begin{aligned}
& =\left[\mathrm{ML}^{-1} \mathrm{~T}^{-2}\right] \cdot[\mathrm{T}] \\
& =\left[\mathrm{ML}^{-1} \mathrm{~T}^{-1}\right]
\end{aligned}$
Dimensions of $\mathrm{NmK}^{-1}$ is
$\begin{aligned}
& =\left[\mathrm{MLT}^{-2}\right][\mathrm{L}][\mathrm{K}]^{-1} \\
& =\left[\mathrm{ML}^2 \mathrm{~T}^{-2} \mathrm{~K}^{-1}\right]
\end{aligned}$
Dimensions of $\mathrm{Jkg}^{-1} \mathrm{~K}^{-1}$
$\begin{aligned}
& =\left[\mathrm{ML}^2 \mathrm{~T}^{-2}\right][\mathrm{M}]^{-1}[\mathrm{~K}]^{-1} \\
& =\left[\mathrm{L}^2 \mathrm{~T}^{-2} \mathrm{~K}^{-1}\right]
\end{aligned}$
Dimensions of $\mathrm{Wm}^{-1} \mathrm{~K}^{-1}$
$\begin{aligned}
& =\left[\mathrm{ML}^2 \mathrm{~T}^{-3}\right][\mathrm{L}]^{-1}[\mathrm{~K}]^{-1} \\
& =\left[\mathrm{MLT}^{-3} \mathrm{~K}^{-1}\right]
\end{aligned}$
So, the correct matching is (iii), (iv), (i), (ii), hence the answer is (d).
