In physics, understanding units and dimensions is fundamental.
Dimensions: These represent the fundamental aspects of a physical quantity. For example, length, mass, and time are fundamental dimensions.Units: These are the specific standards used to measure a particular dimension. For instance, meters (m), kilometers (km), and centimeters (cm) are all units of length.
Derived Units: Units for other physical quantities are derived from these fundamental units. For example:
Velocity: meters per second (m/s) (derived from length and time)
Force: Newton (N) (derived from mass, length, and time)
“The laws of physics is the canvas God laid down on which to paint his masterpiece”
