TS Inter 1st Year Physics Notes 2nd Lesson Units and Measurements<\/h2>\n

\u2192 Fundamental Quantity : A fundamental quantity is one which is unique and freely existing. It does not depend on any other physical quantity. Ex: Length (L), Time (T), Mass (M) etc.<\/p>\n

\u2192 Fundamental quantities in SI System : In SI system length, mass, time, electric current, thermodynamic temperature, amount of substance and luminous intensity are taken as fundamental quantities.<\/p>\n

\u2192 Derived quantity: A derived quantity is pro-duced by the combination of fundamental quantities (i.e., by division or by multiplica-tion of fundamental quantities).
\nEx: Velocity = \\(\\frac{\\text { displacement }}{\\text { time }}=\\frac{\\mathrm{L}}{\\mathrm{T}}\\) or LT-1<\/sup>
\nAcceleration = \\(\\frac{\\text { change in velocity }}{\\text { time }}\\)
\n= \\(\\frac{\\mathrm{LT}^{-1}}{\\mathrm{~T}}\\) = LT2<\/sup><\/p>\n

\u2192 Unit: The standard which is used to measure the physical quantity is called the Unit’.<\/p>\n

\u2192 Fundamental unit: The units of the funda-mental quantities are called the “fundamental units”.
\nEx : Length \u2192 Meter (m), Mass \u2192 Kilogram (kg), Time Second (sec) etc.<\/p>\n

\u2192 Basic units or fundamental units of SI system : The basic units in S.I. system are Length \u2192 metre (L), Mass \u2192 kilogram (kg), Time second (s); electric current \u2192 ampere (amp), Thermodynamic temperature \u2192 Kelvin (K); Amount of substance \u2192 mole (mol); Luminous intensity \u2192 candela (cd); Auxilliary units : Plane angle \u2192 Radian (rad); Solid angle \u2192 steradian (sr)<\/p>\n

\u2192 Derived units: The units of derived quantities are known as “derived units”.
\nEx: Area \u2192 square meter (m2<\/sup>),
\nVelocity \u2192 meter\/sec (m\/s) etc.<\/p>\n

\u2192 International system of units (S.I. units) :
\nS.I. system consists of seven fundamental quantities and two supplementary quantities. To measure these quantities S.I. system consists of seven fundamental or basic units and two auxiliary units.<\/p>\n

\u2192 Accuracy: Accuracy indicates the closeness of a measured value to the true value of the quantity. If we are very close to the true value then our accuracy is high.<\/p>\n

\"TS<\/p>\n

\u2192 Precision : Precision depends on the least measurable value of the instrument. If the least measurable value is too less, then precision of that instrument is high.
\nEx : Least measured value of vernier callipers is 0.1 mm
\nLeast count of screw gauge is 0.01 mm.
\nAmong these two, the precision of the screw gauge is high.<\/p>\n

\u2192 Error: The uncertainty of measurement of a physical quantity is called “error”.
\n\u2192 Systematic errors : Systematic errors always tend to be in one direction i.e., positive or negative. For systematic errors, we know the reasons for the error. They can be reduced by proper correction or by proper care. Ex:<\/p>\n
