Question

Why length, mass and time are chosen as base quantities in mechanics?

Answer 1

In terms of mechanics; length along with mass and time have been considered to be among base quantities.

The reason is that they are among simplest units that cannot be derived from one another.

They are used to derive formulas. It is great to learn that quantities are expressed in terms of length, time and mass.

Your Answer :

The length, mass and time cannot be derived from any other physical quantity and all physical quantities of mechanic can be represented in terms of only length, mass and time. So length, mass and time are chosen as the base quantities in mechanics.
