  • Fundamental Physical Quantities and Their SI Units
    Here are the standard units of fundamental quantities in physics, along with the system they belong to (SI = International System of Units):

    Quantity | Unit | Symbol | System

    ------- | -------- | -------- | --------

    Length | Meter | m | SI

    Mass | Kilogram | kg | SI

    Time | Second | s | SI

    Electric Current | Ampere | A | SI

    Temperature | Kelvin | K | SI

    Amount of Substance | Mole | mol | SI

    Luminous Intensity | Candela | cd | SI

    Note:

    * These seven quantities are considered fundamental because they are independent of each other and cannot be derived from other quantities.

    * Other physical quantities can be derived from these fundamental quantities. For example, speed is derived from length and time.

    Let me know if you want to learn more about any of these units or how they are used in specific physics concepts!
