    The document discusses different types of physical quantities in physics. There are three main types: fundamental quantities, derived quantities, and supplementary quantities. The seven fundamental quantities are mass, length, time, temperature, electric current, luminous intensity, and amount of substance. Derived quantities are those calculated from fundamental quantities, such as area, speed, acceleration, force, and work. Finally, several systems of units for measuring physical quantities are presented, including CGS, FPS, MKS, and the International System of Units (SI units).

    Physical Quantities

    N.T.S.E

    Physical Quantities

    • The quantities which are used in Physics and have some

    measurement are called as Physical Quantities.

    • Types of Physical quantities

    1. Fundamental / Basic Physical Quantities

    2. Derived Physical Quantities

    3. Supplementary Physical Quantities

    • Fundamental Physical Quantities

    These Physical Quantities are 7 in number.

    1. Mass (Kilogram)

    2. Length (meter)

    3. Time (seconds)

    4. Temperature (Kelvin)

    5. Electric Current (Ampere)

    6. Luminous Intensity (Candela)

    7. Amount of Substance (Mole)

    • Derived Physical Quantities

    They are the quantities that have been derived from Fundamental

    Physical Quantities.

    Physical Quantities
    N.T.S.E

    For Example

    1. Area = Length * Breadth

    2. Speed = Distance (Length) /Time

    3. Acceleration = (Speed) Velocity/Time

    4. Force = Mass * Acceleration

    5. Work = Force * Displacement (Distance)

    • SYSTEM OF UNITS

    1. C.G.S. System (Centimeter, Gram, Second)

    2. F.P.S. System (Foot, Pound, Second)

    3. M.F.S. (Meter, Kilogram , Second)

    4. S.I. System or the International System of Units (System De’

    International) is also known as the rationalized M.K.S. System.
