PHYSICAL QUANTITIES AND MEASUREMENT
OBJECTIVE
To obtain derived quantities from base quantities.
INFERENCES
1. Base quantities are the quantities that cannot be defined in terms of other quantities.
2. Derived quantities are physical quantities derived from the base quantities through
multiplication, division or both.
3. Density of substance,
4. Relative Density,
HYPOTHESIS
1.
Measuring physical quantities precisely.
2.
Differentiate between base and derived quantities.
