Personal Notes On Physics [Unofficial]

  • Secondary Units 
    • Depends on other units through equations 
      • Not accurate - the equations were formed a long time ago and themselves are not accurate. 
        • Examples
          • Faraday's Laws
            • Magnetic Flux [Unit - Weber] - Electromotive force [2]
      • Other units are defined in terms of Fundamental Units [1].
      • Inaccuracy in equations  
        • => Propagates to (secondary) units.
        • Equations are only approximations and we are inventing better and better approximations with time.
