Physical quantities and its measurement Explanation: A physical quantity is either a quantity within physics that can be measured (e.g. mass, volume, etc.), or the result of a measurement. Physical quantities are usually expressed as the product of a numerical value and a physical unit (SI units are usually preferred today). The notion of physical dimension of a physical quantity was introduced by Fourier (1822). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_quantity |
