File info: Physical quantities are measurable properties or attributes of objects or systems that can be expressed quantitatively. They are fundamental in physics and other sciences for describing and analyzing the behavior of the physical world. Physical quantities are typically associated with specific symbols or units that represent them.

Here's a description of some common physical quantities along with their symbols:



1. Length (L): Length is a measure of the extent of an object or the distance between two points. It is represented by the symbol "L" and is commonly measured in units such as meters (m), centimeters (cm), or kilometers (km).

2. Mass (m): Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. It is represented by the symbol "m" and is typically measured in units such as kilograms (kg) or grams (g).

3. Time (t): Time is a measure of the duration or sequence of events. It is represented by the symbol "t" and is commonly measured in units such as seconds (s), minutes (min), or hours (h).

4. Temperature (T): Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance. It is represented by the symbol "T" and is measured in units such as degrees Celsius (°C) or Kelvin (K).

5. Electric Current (I): Electric current is the flow of electric charge through a conductor. It is represented by the symbol "I" and is measured in units called amperes (A).

6. Amount of Substance (n): Amount of substance represents the quantity of atoms, molecules, or particles in a sample. It is represented by the symbol "n" and is measured in units such as moles (mol).

7. Velocity (v): Velocity is a measure of the rate of change of displacement of an object with respect to time. It is represented by the symbol "v" and is typically measured in units such as meters per second (m/s).

8. Acceleration (a): Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object with respect to time. It is represented by the symbol "a" and is commonly measured in units such as meters per second squared (m/s²).

9. Force (F): Force is a push or pull that can change the motion or shape of an object. It is represented by the symbol "F" and is measured in units called newtons (N).

10. Energy (E): Energy is the ability to do work or cause a change. It is represented by the symbol "E" and is typically measured in units such as joules (J) or calories (cal).

These are just a few examples of physical quantities and their symbols. In physics and other sciences, there are many more physical quantities, each with its own symbol and unit of measurement, depending on the specific field of study and the phenomena being investigated.
