From: steveraysteveray A quantity is the measurement of an observable property of a particular object, event, or physical system.
- A quantity is always associated with the context of measurement (i.e. the thing measured, the measured value, the accuracy of measurement, etc.) whereas the
- underlying quantity kind is independent of any particular measurement. Thus, length is a quantity kind while the height of a rocket is a specific
- quantity of length; its magnitude that may be expressed in meters, feet, inches, etc. Examples of physical quantities include physical constants, such as

-velocity of a car, the pressure of the atmosphere, and a person's weight; and units are used to describe their numerical measure. Many quantity kinds are related to each other by various physical laws, and as a result, the associated units of some quantity

as \"fundamental\" in this sense. A quantity is distinguished from a \"quantity kind\" in that the former carries a value and the latter is a type specifier.
Except for unit prefixes, all units are specified in separate vocabularies. Descriptions are provided in both HTML and LaTeX formats. A quantity is a measure of an observable phenomenon, that, when associated with something, becomes a property of that thing; a particular object, event, or physical system.
A quantity has meaning in the context of a measurement (i.e. the thing measured, the measured value, the accuracy of measurement, etc.) whereas the underlying quantity kind is independent of any particular measurement. Thus, length is a quantity kind while the height of a rocket is a specific quantity of length; its magnitude that may be expressed in meters, feet, inches, etc. Or, as stated at Wikipedia, in the language of measurement, quantities are quantifiable aspects of the world, such as time, distance, velocity, mass, momentum, energy, and weight, and units are used to describe their measure. Many of these quantities are related to each other by various physical laws, and as a result the units of some of the quantities can be expressed as products (or ratios) of powers of other units (e.g., momentum is mass times velocity and velocity is measured in distance divided by time).
