What else can I help you with?
How many units are in the SI system and can i see them?
The SI has 7 base units: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SI_base_unit Also, the SI has tens of derived units - perhaps hundreds of them, since you can combine the base units in many ways. Those units are ultimately derived from the 7 base units. For example, units for area, volume, speed, force, energy, pressure, electric charge, voltage, and many more, are derived from some of the base units. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SI_derived_unit
What do you call the principal SI units that are used to derive all other SI units?
The principal SI units used to derive all other SI units are the base SI units. These are the units for physical quantities such as length, time, mass, electric current, temperature, amount of substance, and luminous intensity.
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.
What the difference between SI base unit and SI 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 are the SI units for speed of light?
Wavelength is in meters, the frequency is in hertz. period is in seconds and the wave speed is in meters per second.

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.

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.

What is a SI base unit?
A Joule in SI base units is: 1 kg · m2/s2
SI units are based on multiples of what?
SI is a base 10 standardized system
What are the SI units for speed of light?
Wavelength is in meters, the frequency is in hertz. period is in seconds and the wave speed is in meters per second.
What is the SI units of measure?
The SI has seven base units (kilogram, meter, second, ampere, kelvin, mole, candela), and lots of derived units - for example, meter/second for speed/velocity, coulomb = ampere x second for electrical charge, etc.
