PHYSICAL QUANTITIES AND MEASUREMENT

Quantity that can be measured

Numerical values and unit give quantities meaning

PREFIX

SI UNIT

*added to very small quantities

*smaller easier to writing
SI UNIT
2,000,000,000Byte= 2GByte

(QUANTITIY)(SIUNIT)(SYMBOL)

(Length)(Metre)(m)
(Mass)(Kilogram)(kg)
(Time)(Second)(s)
(Temperature)(Kelvin)(K)
(ElectricCurrent)(Ampere)(A

physical
SI units for some other quantities
(QUANTUTIES)(UNIT)
(Speed)(m/s)
(Area)(m2)
(volume)(m)

(PREFIX)(ABBREVIATION)(POWER)
*(Tera)(T)(x1012)
*(Giga)(G)(x109)
*(Mega)(M)(x106)
BASE QUANTITIES

PHYSICAL QUANTITIES

*physical quantity that cant be derived from other

(BASE QUANTITIES)(SIUNIT)(SYMBOLOFUNIT)
(Length,l)(meter)(m)
(Mass,m)(kilogram)((kg)
(Time,t)(second)(s)
(electric currenct)(ampere)(A)

*only quantities that have the

same units can be added or subtracted.
DERIVED QUANTITIES
Physical quantities derived from the combination
of base quantities thourgh multiplication/division or both the these
(DERIVED QUANTITY) (SYMBOL) (FORMULA) (BASEUNIT) (DERIVEDUNIT)

*(Area) (A) (LengthXLength) (mXm) (m2)

*(Volume) (V) (Length X Length X Length) (m X m X m) (m3)
*(Density) (p) ( mass/volume) (kg/m3) (kgm-3)
*(Speed) (v) (length/time) (m/s) (ms-1)
*(acceleration) (a) ( v/time) (ms-1/s) (ms-2)
*(force) (F) (mass x accelaration) (kg x ms-2) (kgms-2)
*(Momentum) (p) (mass x velocity) (kg x ms-1) (kgms-1)
*(Pressure) (P) (Force / Area) ( N / m2) (Nm-2)

SCALAR AND VECTOR QUANTITY

*scalar quantity has magnitude or size only

CONVERSION OF UNIT
*vector quantity has direction as well as magnitude

AREA AND VOLUME

(SCALARS) (VECTORS)

1 m = 100 cm

(distance) (displacement)
(speed) (velocity)
(mass) (weight)
(time) (acceleration)
(pressure) (force)
(energy) (momentum)

1 m = 1m X 1 m
= 100cm X 100cm
= 10,000 cm2
= 1 x 104 cm2
1m3 = 1m x 1m x 1m
= 100cm x 100cm x 100cm
= 1,000,000 cm3
= 1 x 106 cm3
