Is volume derived or fundamental?
Volume is measured in units derived from the fundamental unit of length.
Is dm3 a derived unit?
Yes. There is no SI fundamental unit for volume, so any volume unit is derived.
From what unit is a measure of volume derived?
Liter because it's the base unit of volume
What kind of unit is a cubic centimeter?
It is a derived metric unit for volume.
Is volume a derived quantity?
yes it is,it is derived by cubing the fundamental unit of length
What is the metric base units of volume?
The meter is the metric base unit for volume, and the cubic meter is the derived unit.
Why is volume known as a complex unit instead of a SI unit?
The basic SI unit is for length. Volume is a measure which is based on length-cubed and so it is a derived (not complex) unit.
What is the base unit of volume in the metric system?
If, by 'metric system', you mean the 'SI system', then there is no base unit for volume. The unit for volume is called a 'derived unit', and it is the cubic metre (m3).
Is the basic unit for measuring volume kilogram's?
No.* Mass is measured in kilograms. * Volume is measured in cubic meters (which is not a base unit, but a derived unit).
Is the unit for density a derived unit or a base unit?
That will obviously depend on the system of units chosen. In the SI (International System), it is a derived unit (mass divided by volume).
Why density is a derive unit?
a fundamental unit is kg or m - (also seconds, amps, candela and moles). Density is kg/m3 and is thus derived.
What is the derived SI unit that is equal to the non SI unit of volume the liter?
gallon
