1. The Definition of Primary Units

Primary units is a quantity whose units have been predetermined or
defined. There are seven primary units in physics.
- Length (m)
1 meter is the length of the path traveled by light in a vacum in an
inteval of 1/299 792 458 second
- Mass (kg)
1 kilogram is the mass of a platinumiridium cylinder which has a
height and a diameter of 3.9 cm
- Time (s)
1 second is the time inteval required by the cesium -133 atom to
vibrate 9 192 631 770
- Temperature (K)
0 kelvin is absolute 0 (a condition in thermodynamics where the
constituent particles of matter stop moving) 1 kelvin is a fraction
1/273.16 of the thermodynamic temperature of triple point air.
- Current (A)
1 ampere is the current flowing on two parallel straight
conductors in a vacum with a separation distance of 1 meter with
the length of each conductor is infinite and the cross sectional
area is neglected which will produce a tensile force of 2x10 power
-7.
- Intensity (cd)
 1 candela is the intensity of light in a particular direction from a
source that emits monochromatic radiation with a frequency of
540 x 10 power 12 and has a radiant intensity in the direction of
1/683 watt per steradian
- Amount of substance (mole)
1 mole is the number of constituents of an element as much as
the number of atoms in 0.012 kg of carbon atoms.
2. The Definition of Derivative Units
Derivative units are quantities whose units are derived from the
principal constituent quentities.
- Cross –sectional area (A) > m2
Area is derived from length, which is length multiplied by length.
- Velocity (V) > m/s
Velocity is derived from the magnitude of length and time. That is
Length distance divided by time.
- Acceleration (a) > m/s2
The acceleration is derived from the magnitude of length and time
that density divided by length of time power 2.
- Density (rho) > kg/m3
Density is derived from mass and length, that is, mass divided by
length power 3.
- Force (F) > N
Force is derived from mass, length, and time magnitude. That is
mass times (length divided by time power 2).
- Pressure (P) >Pa
Pressure is derived from mass, length, and time, that is mass
divided by (mass times power 2).
