Fundamental Quantities:

Fundamental quantities are the base units in a given measurement system. They can also be directly measured.

Examples:

1. Distance (meters)

2. Time (seconds)

3. Volume (liters)

4. Temperature (Kelvin)

Derived Quantities:

While fundamental quantities can be directly measured, derived ones must be calculated. They are calculated from the base unit. That;s the biggest difference.

Examples:

1. Kilogram:

Mass when measured in grams is a fundamental quantity. Kilograms are however 1000 grams. So kilograms is a derived unit.

2. Newton:

A newton is the net force required to accelerate 1 kilogram of matter 1 meter per second. So, newton is a derived quantity ( because kg is a derived quantity)

3. Watt:

Watt is calculated by dividing the joules per second. Since, joules is a derived quantity so watt is also a derived quantity.
