meter - m

kilogram - kg

second - s

ampere - A

kelvin - K

candela - CD

mole - mol

The above are Base SI units.

Two supplementary units

radian - rad

steradian - Sr

-----------------------------------------------------

hello friend, in this context fundamental and base are synonyms

Nevertheless, the correct term is 'Base'. SI doesn't use the term 'fundamental'. Incidentally, the term 'Supplementary Units' no longer exists.

Which best describes the term derived units in SI?

a specific combination of base units with its own name


What units do scientists use to measure?

Most scientists use the SI, or international standard, system. This includes units and prefixes. The units can be expanded into base (or original) and derived (made from the base) units. The prefixes include centi- (.01), milli- (.001), kilo (1000), and many others. The base units include meters (length or distance), kilograms (mass), and seconds (time), while derived units include liters (Volume), meters per second (speed), and meters per square seconds(accelleration)


What are the basic Si units and their derived units?

The SI is founded on seven SI base units for seven base quantities assumed to be mutually independent.These are :length meter m mass kilogram kg time second s electric current ampere A thermodynamic temperature kelvin K amount of substance mole mol luminous intensity candela cdOther quantities, called derived quantities, are defined in terms of the seven base quantities via a system of quantity equations. The SI derived units for these derived quantities are obtained from these quations and the seven SI base units.


What is the difference between a base unit from a derived unit?

There are 7 base SI units and all other are defined using these 7 base units. See the related question below:[http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_are_all_the_SI_unitsWhat are all SI units?]


What does the SI unit for speed, m/s, stand for?

The International System of Units (SI) has two type of units, base units and derived units. Speed is a derived unit. Its unit is Meter/sec. Its a scalar quantity.

Is femo a si prefix?

No, "femo" is not a SI prefix. The SI (International System of Units) prefixes are used to denote multiples or fractions of base units in the metric system, such as kilo-, mega-, milli-, etc.

What do you call the principal SI units that are used to derive all other SI units?

Base units


What are the fundamental and derived units?

In a system of units such as the SI, BASE UNITS are defined; other units are derived from those.For example, in the SI, the meter, the kilogram, and the second are base units; the units for area (meters squared), for speed and velocity (meters/second), etc. are derived from the base units. Which units are base units, and which units are derived units, really depends on how the unit is defined. For example, in the SI, pressure is a derived unit; but you can just as well invent a system in which pressure is a base unit, and some other units, that are base units in the SI, are derived in this new system.


How do derived units differ from base unites?

Seven metric base units make up the foundation of SI. And Specific combinations of SI base units yield derived units. That's why the differ.
