SI Units Flashcards: 7 Base Units & 22 Named Derived Units
Practice all 7 SI base units and 22 derived units with special names: quantities, symbols, and base-unit expressions in one installable deck.
Apie šį rinkinį
Most SI lists are easy to scan and awkward to recall. These 110 text-only cards turn the complete core into small retrieval tasks: all seven base units and all 22 derived units with special names and symbols.
What the cards practice
-
Quantity ↔ unit and symbol: recall each base quantity and every named derived quantity in both directions.
-
Named unit ↔ coherent base-unit expression: expand all 22 special names, then reverse the mapping with the quantity supplied whenever an expression is shared.
-
Notation and distinctions: keep case, spacing, symbol grammar, Hz/Bq, Gy/Sv, rad/sr, and kelvin/degree Celsius intervals straight.
The deck leaves out prefixes, conversions, non-SI units, unnamed derived units, significant figures, uncertainty, laboratory procedures, historical definitions, defining-constant values, and proprietary exam material. Expression-to-unit prompts always state the quantity, so shared expressions such as s⁻¹ and m²·s⁻² stay unambiguous.
The sequence establishes the seven base units first. It then alternates the 22 named units with a deterministic stride before moving from identity recall to base-unit expressions. Related directions and easy-to-confuse units stay at least three unrelated cards apart; the review scheduler handles longer-term spacing after installation.
Facts were checked against the BIPM SI Brochure, 9th edition, version 4.01 and NIST SP 330 §2, with notation checked against NIST SP 330 §5. The 2026 BIPM edition expresses radian and steradian as unit one; this deck follows that current form. No source prose, third-party deck text, or exam content was copied.
An AI tool helped draft and sequence the cards and generated the cover. Every final front and back was manually checked against the official SI tables. The original questions, answers, selection, sequence, metadata, and cover are shared under CC0 1.0 to the extent those elements can be dedicated; the underlying SI facts remain common knowledge.

Klausimas
How are SI unit names capitalized in English?
Atsakymas

104 kortelė
Klausimas
What determines capitalization in an SI unit symbol?

Atsakymas
Put a space between them: 25 m and 20 °C. In °C, the degree sign and C stay together.
107 kortelė
Klausimas
Both hertz and becquerel reduce to s⁻¹. When is each used?
Atsakymas
Use hertz (Hz) for periodic phenomena and becquerel (Bq) for activity referred to a radionuclide. The shared expression doesn't make the quantities interchangeable.

Klausimas
Both gray and sievert reduce to m²·s⁻². What distinguishes them?
Atsakymas
Gray (Gy) is used for absorbed dose or kerma; sievert (Sv) is used for dose equivalent. The quantity context determines the special name.
109 kortelė
Klausimas
Radian and steradian both have coherent unit expression 1. What distinguishes them?
Atsakymas
Radian (rad) is used for plane angle; steradian (sr) is used for solid angle. Their symbols preserve the quantity context.
110 kortelė
Klausimas
For temperature intervals, how do kelvin and degrees Celsius compare?
Atsakymas
A change of 1 K equals a change of 1 °C. Their zero points differ, so absolute temperatures aren't numerically equal.
