With the base units of the SI system defined as at present, the relevant base unit is the unit of length (metre) and a volume is derived from it. However, it is mathematically (and conceptually) possible to define a unit of volume (litre) as a base unit and derive the unit for length from it.
The current base units are those for
- distance (metre)
- mass (kilogram)
- time (second)
- temperature (kelvin)
- amount of substance (mole)
- current (ampere)
- luminous intensity (candela)

Is volume fundamental or derived quantity?
Volume is derived, from length.
Is volume a derived quantity?
yes it is,it is derived by cubing the fundamental unit of length
Why is density a derived quantity?
It is a measure of mass per unit volume and is derived using measures of mass and lengths in three orthogonal dimensions.
A quantity formed from the combination of other measurements is a blank quantity...?
This is not at all unusual. Volume for instance is formed from length, width, and depth. Electrical power is formed from knowing voltage and current. Speed from distance and time. There are many examples easy to think of.
Is area a derived quantity?
Yes, area is a derived quantity.
Is speed a derived quantity?
Velocity is a derived quantity. Speed is velocity without direction. Velocity is derived from distance and time.
What are derived quantities what are the fundamental quantities?
Fundamental quantities are quantities that can be measured such as mass, length and temperature. Derived quantities are quantities that has to be calculated such as pressure, volume and work done.AnswerThe SI does not define 'fundamental quantity', instead it uses the term 'Base Unit'. All other units are 'Derived Units', so-called because they are each derived from combinations of Base Units.
