FT is a derived unit and not a fundamental unit. The fundamental unit cannot be broken down into different forms. The derived units on the other hand are made up of the fundamental units.

Volume is measured in units derived from the fundamental unit of length.


Mention differences between fundamental and derived units?

The fundamental units are based on specific standards for each unit. Derived units result from manipulating the fundamental units. For example, the SI unit for distance or length is the meter, and the SI unit for time is the second. If you divide meters by seconds, you get m/s, a derived unit for speed or velocity.


Is dm3 a derived unit?

Yes. There is no SI fundamental unit for volume, so any volume unit is derived.


Is velocity a derived unit?

No, velocity is not a derived unit. It is a fundamental physical quantity that measures the rate of change of an object's position with respect to time. Velocity is derived from the fundamental units of length and time.


Why are derived units more complex than fundamental units?

Derived units is obtained from a combination of fundamental units. Derived unit is a cubic centimeter or a cube that is a centimeter on each side.


Why are derived units more complex than fundamental units and why is it important to know whether a unit is derived or fundamental?

Derived units are simply more complex because they are made up of several (that is, usually, by more than one) base unit. It is just the way they are defined; for example, in the SI, distance and time are base units, while speed is a derived unit (distance / time). You can just as well invent a system of units where - for example - time and speed are base units; in this case, distance would be a derived unit.


Is kelvin a fundamental unit?

The kelvin is not considered a fundamental unit in the International System of Units (SI). It is a derived unit that is based on the fundamental unit of temperature in SI, the degree Celsius. The kelvin is used to measure thermodynamic temperature.
