📖 Comprehensive Note
Physical quantities are quantities that can be measured and expressed using numbers and units. Measurement makes physics scientific, accurate, and meaningful.
Every physical quantity has two parts: a numerical value and a unit. Without units, numbers have no physical meaning.
Physical quantities are used to describe physical properties of objects and events, such as length, mass, time, temperature, speed, and force.
- They must be measurable.
- They are expressed in numbers and units.
- They describe physical properties.
- They form the foundation of physics.
