What are the 7 fundamentals units of measurement?

Answer 1

metre (m) for length kilogram (kg) for mass second (s) for time ampere (A) for electric current Kelvin (K) for thermodynamic temperature mole (mol) for amount of substance candela (cd) for luminous intensity

Answer 2

Here are the seven fundamental quantities. I also included their definitions and SI units.

length - meter (m)

- the measurement or extent of something from end to end.

mass - kilogram (kg)

- a coherent body of matter with no definite shape.

time - second (s)

- the indefinite continued progress of existence and events.

electric current - ampere (A)

- flow of electric charge.

thermodynamic temperature - kelvin (K)

- A measure proportional to the thermal energy of a given body at equilibrium.

amount of substance - mole (mol)

- the number of specified group of entities present in a substance.

luminous intensity - candela (cd)

- an expression of the amount of light power emanating from a point source within a solid angle of one steradian.

Answer 3

metre (m) for length kilogram (kg) for mass second (s) for time ampere (A) for electric current Kelvin (K) for thermodynamic temperature mole (mol) for amount of substance candela (cd) for luminous intensity

Answer 4

There are only 3, namely Mass, Length, and Time. In the 'CGS system, which is the Meteic system of measurement, the letters CGS stand for CENTIMETRE, GRAM, SECOND. They are the 3 base units of measurement. All other units are either multiples of them , or combinations of them,. EXAMPLES Kilogram, Metre, Hour. Or Gram/ Cubic cm. Or Kilometre/ Hour. etc.

Answer 5

length (m)

mass (kg)

time (s)

electric current (Amps)

temperature (K)

luminous intensity (candela)

amount of substance (mole)

Answer 6

Meter: Measures length

Kilogram: Measures mass

Second: Measures time

Ampere: Measures electric current

Kelvin: Measures thermodynamic temperature

Candela: Measures luminous intensity

Mole: Measures the amount of a substance
