Base Quantities and Derived Quantities

In any system of units, the units for some physical quantities must be specified through a measurement process. These measurements are the base quantities of the system, and their units are the base units of the system. The algebraic combinations of the base values can then be used to express all other physical quantities. Each of these physical quantities is then referred to as a derived quantity, with each unit being referred to as a derived unit.

Measurement: Derived Units

The International System of Units or SI system, by international agreement, has fixed measurement units for seven fundamental properties: length, mass, time, temperature, electric current, amount of substance, and luminosity. These are called the SI base units.

Higher Derivatives

In calculus, higher-order derivatives extend the idea of differentiation beyond the first derivative to capture successive rates of change. These derivatives provide detailed information about the behavior of functions and have important applications in both mathematics and physics. To illustrate these concepts, consider the example functionwhich serves as a useful case study for exploring higher derivatives.The first derivative represents the slope of the original function. The second...

Derivatives

DerivativesThe concept of instantaneous rate of change is fundamental in both mathematics and physics, particularly in describing how a moving object alters its position with respect to time. This rate is captured mathematically through the derivative of a function. The derivative at a point represents the slope of the tangent line to the curve of the function at that point and quantifies how the function’s output changes per infinitesimal change in input.Derivative of the Square Root...

Effect of Hepatic Disease on Pharmacokinetics: Active Drug, Metabolite and Fraction of Metabolized Drug01:14

Effect of Hepatic Disease on Pharmacokinetics: Active Drug, Metabolite and Fraction of Metabolized Drug

In pharmacotherapy, monitoring drug concentrations is paramount, especially for drugs whose therapeutic effects hinge on both the active compound and its metabolite. Hepatic impairment profoundly influences drug potency by altering liver function. If the drug is more potent than its metabolite, impaired liver function amplifies drug activity due to elevated drug concentration levels. Conversely, if the metabolite holds greater potency, diminished liver function diminishes drug activity by...

The Derivative as a Function01:26

The Derivative as a Function

A derivative quantifies how a function changes in response to variations in its input. It provides a localized rate of change, representing the slope of the tangent line to the function at any given point. When this process is applied systematically across the entire domain of the function, it yields a new function—the derivative function—which encodes the rate of change at every point. This concept is central to calculus and essential for understanding the behavior of dynamic...
