The correct answer is: [M L 2 T 1 ]
According to Planck:
E=hv
h= E v
Substituting the dimensions of known physical quantities:
[ h ]= [ M L 2 T 2 ] [ T 1 ] or[ h ]=M L 2 T 1
So, SI unit or Planck’s constant is kg m2s–1 which can also be written as
( kg m 2 s 2 )×s . But as   kg m 2 s 2 is joule, so unit of h is   joule×sec , i.e., Js.
