Description

This is a combined quiz that will be looking at many different aspects of Physics to be precise. In this quiz, we will talk about Physical quantities which we measure with the use of units and Dimensions. This quiz will help you understand things like distance being a physical quantity( a fundamental one at that) and how it is measured and its unit of measurement. It is therefore important for you to take this quiz seriously as you may be tested in school or during examinations practically and not just theoretically.

A Physical quantity is simply a physical property that can be quantified or measured. These quantities are measured using numbers or figures which all end with units and these units in simple words mean the magnitude of a quantity. For example, we have time to be a physical quantity, with units of seconds (s), measured using a stopwatch or simply watch.
The dimension of a physical quantity is defined as the number of times the fundamental units of mass, length, and time appear in the physical quantity.  

 This particular topic(s) in physics is very useful in all fields as concerns engineering and life as a whole, so be sure to take the quiz, for you will find it very educational and worth it.
Good luck!
