Answers
The fundamental quantities are length, mass, time, temperature, electric current, luminous intensity and amount of substance and their S.I. units are metre, kilogram, second, kelvin, ampere, candela and mole respectively. ... The units of derived quantities are called derived units
★ The physical quantities like mass, length and time , which do not depend on each other are called fundamental physical quantities. The corresponding units of physical quantities are called fundamental units ★

★ The physical quantities which can be derived from the fundamental physical quantities are known as derived physical quantities. The corresponding units of derived physical quantities are called derived units. For example Speed, density, acceleration, force, etc.
