difine fandamental unit and dirave unit
Answers
Answer:
Derived quantity : quantities which are depend on fundamental quantities. ex: Area, volume, density, speed, acceleration, force, velocity etc. Fundamental units : units which are used to measure the fundamental quantities are called fundamental units.(units which are independent on other units)
#Fundamental units are all those units which are independent of any other unit (including themselves). Derived units are all those units which are obtained by multiplying and/or dividing one or more fundamental units with or without introducing any other numerical factor.
#Fundamental units cannot be broken down into elementary level; in fact, these are elementary unites. Derived units can be broken down to its elementary level (composed of fundamental units).
#Fundamental units cannot be expressed in terms of derived units. Derived units can be expressed in terms of fundamental units.
Only seven fundamental units exist in SI system. A large number of derived units are available.
#Examples of fundamental units along with physical properties are:
Length (Meter, m)
Mass (Kilogram, kg)
Time (Second, s)
Temperature (Kelvin, K)
Amount of substance (Mole, mol)
Electric current (Ampere, A)
Luminous intensity (Candela, cd)
#Examples of derived units:
Velocity (m/s)
Acceleration (m2/s)
Momentum (kg-m/s)
Force (N)
Density (kg/m3)
Heat (J)
Energy (J)
Power (W), etc.
