ScanSolve AI Answer

Derived quantities are physical quantities that are expressed in terms of combinations of base quantities (like length, mass, time, electric current, temperature, amount of substance, and luminous intensity). Here's a list of common derived quantities and their SI units:

  1. Area:

    • Unit: square meter (m²)
  2. Volume:

    • Unit: cubic meter (m³)
  3. Density:

    • Unit: kilogram per cubic meter (kg/m³)
  4. Speed / Velocity:

    • Unit: meter per second (m/s)
  5. Acceleration:

    • Unit: meter per second squared (m/s²)
  6. Force:

    • Unit: Newton (N), which is kg·m/s²
  7. Pressure:

    • Unit: Pascal (Pa), which is N/m²
  8. Work / Energy:

    • Unit: Joule (J), which is N·m
  9. Power:

    • Unit: Watt (W), which is J/s
  10. Frequency:

    • Unit: Hertz (Hz), which is 1/s (or s⁻¹)
  11. Electric Charge:

    • Unit: Coulomb (C), which is A·s (Ampere-second)
  12. Electric Potential Difference (Voltage):

    • Unit: Volt (V), which is J/C
  13. Electric Resistance:

    • Unit: Ohm (Ω), which is V/A
  14. Momentum:

    • Unit: kilogram meter per second (kg·m/s)
  15. Torque:

    • Unit: Newton meter (N·m)
