What do you mean by fundamental & derived quantities? Give the derived unit of Linear momentum (P).
Fundamental quantity : quantities which
are independent on other physical quantity .
ex: length,mass,time, current, amount of
substance, luminous intensity, thermodynamic temperature,
Derived quantity : quantities which are
depend on fundamental quantities.
ex: Area, volume, density, speed,
acceleration, force, velocity etc.
The definition of linear momentum is
consistent with most people’s intuitive understanding of momentum: a large,
fast-moving object has greater momentum than a smaller, slower object. Linear momentum is defined as
the product of a system’s mass multiplied by its velocity. In symbols, linear
momentum is expressed as p=mv
Momentum is directly proportional to the
object’s mass and also its velocity. Thus the greater an object’s mass or the
greater its velocity, the greater its momentum. Momentum p is a vector having the
same direction as the velocity v. The SI unit
for momentum is kg⋅ms
