    Fundamentals

    • A physical quantity is a measurable attribute of a physical system, such as length, mass, or time.
    • A unit is a standard quantity used to express the magnitude of a physical quantity.
    • A system of units is a set of fundamental units used to express physical quantities, such as the International System of Units (SI).

    SI Units

    • There are seven base units in the SI system that cannot be derived from others:
      • Meter (m) is the unit of length.
      • Kilogram (kg) is the unit of mass.
      • Second (s) is the unit of time.
      • Ampere (A) is the unit of electric current.
      • Kelvin (K) is the unit of thermodynamic temperature.
      • Mole (mol) is the unit of amount of substance.
      • Candela (cd) is the unit of luminous intensity.
    • Derived units are units that can be derived from base units, such as velocity (m/s), force (N), and energy (J).

    Unit Conversion

    • Conversion factors are used to convert between units, such as 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters and 1 mile = 1.60934 kilometers.
    • Dimensional analysis is a method for converting between units by analyzing the dimensions of the physical quantity.

    Measurement Uncertainty

    • Accuracy is the closeness of a measurement to the true value.
    • Precision is the closeness of multiple measurements to each other.
    • Error is the difference between a measurement and the true value.
    • Significant figures are a method for expressing the uncertainty of a measurement by stating the number of digits known to be reliable.

    Types of Measurement

    • Direct measurement involves measuring a physical quantity directly, such as measuring the length of an object with a ruler.
    • Indirect measurement involves measuring a physical quantity by measuring other related quantities, such as calculating the area of a rectangle by measuring its length and width.
