these are bad choices.
Deflection is determined using deflection calculations based on how the beam is loaded, the end conditions, and the inherent strength of the beam based on EI.
Stresses can be determined from the shear and moment diagram. The units of the shear diagram will be be pounds or kips or whatever unit you are using. The units of the moment diagram will be in ft lbs, etc.
Stresses can be determined by V/A+Mc/I
