A

Ampere
The base unit of electric current in the International System of Units (SI)

Amplitude
The Height of wave

Area
The size of a surface.
The amount of space inside the boundary of a flat (2-dimensional) object such as a triangle or
circle, or surface of a solid (3-dimensional) object.

Candela
Is the unit of Luminous Intensity

Coherent
derive units which the product of powers of base units does not include numerical factor other
than one.

Compound Units
units expressed as the product or quotient of other units are written in the same way as standard
algebraic expressions. Multiplication is represented either by a space, or by the use of the dot
operator (also called a middle dot)
D

Decibel
a unit used to measure the intensity of a sound or the power level of an electrical signal by
comparing it with a given level on a logarithmic scale

Decimal Markers
for any number that has a fractional part, this (sometimes called the decimal point) is the symbol
that separates the integral part of the number from its fractional part. This is usually either a
period or a comma.

Degree of Uncertainty
is expressed as a number in parentheses immediately following the value of the unit, and
represents the amount by which the last two digits may vary
Density
the ratio between mass and volume or mass per unit volume.
It is a measure of how much stuff an object has in a unit volume (cubic meter or cubic
centimeter).

Dimensionless Quantity
a quantity to which no physical dimension is assigned, also known as a bare, pure, or scalar
quantity or a quantity of dimension one.

Electric Resistance
The ability of a material to oppose to the flow of charge current in it. The resistance of a wire can
be expressed as: Electric resistance = resistivity * length / cross sectional are

F
Frequency
The number of cycles in a unit of time. The derived SI unit for frequency is hertz, named after
Heinrich Rudolf Hertz (symbol hz).

Force
is an interaction when a object collided with another object due to the pull and push of a certain
force

Illuminance
The quantity of light incident on a surface per unit of area. The metric unit is lm/m^2
K

Kelvin
is the Standard International ( SI ) unit of thermodynamic temperature

Kilogram
The basic unit of mass in the metric system.

Momentum
In Newtonian mechanics, linear momentum, translational momentum, or simply momentum is
the product of the mass and velocity of an object.

N
Nautical Mile
Used to express the distances travelled by ships and aircraft.

Newton
The unit of force, named after one of the greatest contributors in the field of physics Sir Isaac
Newton

Quantities
a quantity of known value is expressed as a number, followed by a space, and then the unit
symbol. The space represents the multiplication operator.

Radian
is the SI unit for measuring angles as well as the SI unit of angular measure used in many areas
of mathematics

Second
Is the unit of the physical quantity time

Steradian
The SI unit of solid angle, equal to the angle at the center of a sphere subtended by a part of the
surface equal in area to the square of the radius.
U

Unit
represents a specific example or prototype of the quantity concerned, which is used as a point of
reference.

Vernier Scale
A visual aid to take an accurate measurement reading between two graduation markings on a
linear scale.

Voltage
Voltage, electric potential difference, electric pressure or electric tension is the difference in
electric potential between two points.

Wavenumber
refers to the number of complete wave cycles of an electromagnetic field (EM field) that exist in
one meter (1 m) of linear space.
