Question

Mass is a Physical Quantity. But what about WEIGHT ? Is it a Physical Quantity or a Derived Quantity like Area/ Volume or Density

Answer 1

Mass is a fundamental physical quantity. Its standard unit is kilogram (kg).

Weight is actually the gravitational force on a body on earth. It is a derived physical quantity. Its unit is Newton (N).

Newton in terms of the fundamental units is kgms^-2. So, the unit Newton is comprised of fundamental quantities: mass (kg), length (m) and time (s).
