Question

Density is a ____ physical quantity.

Answer 1

1. Density is a derived physical quantity which is defined as the ratio of mass and volume.
2. The formula for the density is $\mathrm{Density}=\frac{\mathrm{Mass}}{\mathrm{Volume}}$
3. From the formula shown above, we can see that the measurements of density depend on other physical quantities mass and volume.
4. Therefore, the density is derived from mass and volume.

Hence, density is a derived physical quantity.
