The statement that  “Angular momentum (L) and Planck's constant (h) can be dimensionally equated” is true

Explanation:

We know that

E=h\nu

Where E is energy, h is Planck's constant and \nu is frequency

We also know that the dimensions of energy = [ML^2T^{-2}]

And the dimensions of frequency is [T^{-1}]

Thus, the dimensions of Planck's constant

= Dimensions of Energy/Dimensions of frequency

=\frac{[ML^2T^{-2}]}{[T^{-1}]}

=[ML^2T^{-1}]

also we know that

Angular momentum

L=I\omega

Moment of inertia I is of the form kMR², where k is a constant

Thus, the dimensions of moment of inertia = [ML^2]

And the dimensions of angular velocity = [T^{-1}]

Therefore, the dimensions of angular momentum

= dimensions of moment of inertia × dimensions of angular velocity

= [ML^2]\times [T^{-1}]

= [ML^2T^{-1}]

Thus, the statement that  “Angular momentum (L) and Planck's constant (h) can be dimensionally equated” is true.

Hope this answer is helpful.
