Question

is centigrade a fundamental unit​

Answer 1

Answer:

centigrade is not fundamental unit but Kelvin is fundamental unit

Answer 2

Answer:

Yes, it is true. Centigrade is a fundamental unit and not a derived unit.

Explanation:

A fundamental unit is the smallest measurable quantity from which no other units can be derived. Hence, centigrade is a fundamental unit of temperature but it is not accepted worldwide.  

The international system considers ‘Kelvin’ as the fundamental unit for temperature and not ‘centigrade’ as the fundamental unit.  

At 0 degree centigrade, the temperature equals to 273.15 K.
