Symbols of Scientific Terms

Mostly physics is defined in terms of physical quantities. These quantities are two types. The Base quantities. And derived quantities.
Base quantities are those who do not need to define them other quantities.
these are as follows:

 Quantity                    SI unit                            Symbol
Length                          metre                               m
Mass                          kilogram                           kg
Time                           second                                s
Electric-                      ampere                              A
Current
Temperature               kelvin                                K
Light                         candela                              cd
Substance                   mole                                 mol

 Derived units are those physical quantities which need to define base quantities
these are
Quantity                          Unit                  Symbol
Force                               Newton                    N
Work                                joule                       J
Power                              watt                         W
Pressure                          pascal                      Pa
Electric-                          coulomb                  C
charge
