PHYSICAL QUANTITIES AND SI UNITS :
Physical Definition SI Unit
The 11th general conference of weights and measures in 1960 Quantity
recommended the use of international system of units. volume length cube m3
Abbreviated as SI Units (after the French expression La System area length square m2
International de units). The SI system has seven basic units of speed distance travelled ms– 1
physical quantities as follows : per unit time

Physical quantity Abbreviation Name of unit Symbol acceleration speed changed ms– 2
per unit time
time t second s
density mass per unit volume kg m–3
mass m kilogram kg
pressure force per unit area kgm–1s–2 or Nm–2
length l metre m (pressure = Pa)
temperature T kelvin K force mass times acceleration kgms–2
of object (Newton N)
electric current I ampere A
energy force times distance kgm2s–2
light intensity Iv candela Cd
travelled (Joule J)
amount of substance n mole mol frequency cycles per second s–1 (hertz = Hz)

DERIVED UNITS : power energy per second kgm2s–3 or Js–1


(Watt = W)
The units obtained by combination of basic units are
electric charge ampere times second As (coloumb = C)
known as derived units e.g. velocity is expressed as distance/
time. Hence unit is m/s or ms–1. Some common derived units are electric potential energy per unit JA –1 s –1 or kgm 2 s – 3
difference charge A–1 (volt = V)
