When using the formula: Density=Mass/Volume, units are: (D)- g/cm cubed, (M)- grams, (V)-cm
When using the formula: Water Displacement Method, the nits are: (D)- g/mL, (M)- grams, (V)- milliliters
They are 15 and 45 units.
base on what you measure to use the metric units.
The SI unit for density is kg/m3 (or g/cm3, Mg/m3).
meters and seconds
Derived units do not have a single 'look'. They are produced from the base units of a measuring system such as the SI system.In the SI system there are seven base units which are;MetreKilogramSecondAmpereKelvinMoleCandelaAll other units are DERIVED units.For example the units for volume is the cubic metre and density is derived from the metre and kilogram. So density is kilograms per cubic metre in the SI system.
a fundamental unit is kg or m - (also seconds, amps, candela and moles). Density is kg/m3 and is thus derived.
measurment
The metric, or SI, system has seven base units, from these seven all other units are derived. Length- metre (m). Time- second (s). Mass- kilogram (kg). Temperature- kelvin (K). Electric current- ampere (A). Luminous intensity- candela (cd). Amount of substance- mole (mol).
Density is not a derived unit.. It is a physical quantity and hence is a derived quantity.. the unit of density kgm-3 or gcm-3 is a derived unit because it can be expressed as the quotient of base units. In general, a unit is said to be derived if it can be expressed as the product and/or quotient of base units.
The answer depends on what characteristic you wish to measure: its length, base area, volume, mass, density, optical density, temperature, and so on.
Derived units are units built up from SI base units. It has been found that relatively few base units are required. Typical derived units are m/sec (metres per second), sometimes written m.sec-1 for speed and joules/sec, sometimes written joules.sec-1 for power. Although the latter unit is a derived unit, it has its own name, the watt, for convenience. (Nonetheless, the people who govern the business of defining units have been scrupulous in defining it in terms of base units because it's possible.) New base units are defined when phenomena are encountered which simply cannot be measured in terms of existing base units or units derived from them.
