FUNDAMENTAL UNITS
OTHER FUNDAMENTAL UNITS
Additional fundamental units include the ampere (electric current), kelvin
(temperature), mole (amount of substance), and candela (luminous intensity).
Together, these form the SI base units.
BASE UNITS DEFINED
Fundamental units are the basic building blocks of measurement in physics. They include meter
(length), kilogram (mass), and second (time). These units are defined by precise standards.

DERIVED
UNITS
COMMON DERIVED UNITS
Other examples include force (newton, N), energy
(joule, J), and pressure (pascal, Pa). Understanding
derived units is crucial for applying physics concepts
FORMATION OF DERIVED UNITS effectively.
Derived units result from combining fundamental units through
multiplication or division. For example, speed is meters per
second (m/s), deriving from meter and second.
