Just represent every unit in terms of them then it's good.
One problem with the array you came up is that the units are not orthogonal, since Joules = Newtons * Meters.
- jcranmer 11y agoActually, there's more "kinds" of units: radians (versus degrees) and steradians come to mind.
- masklinn 11y agoThese are dimensionless derived units in SI equivalence (respectively m/m and m2/m2)
- dastbe 11y agoSorry! I never really spent much time in the physical sciences, so I didn't know that. You would obviously not want to pick Joules as a fundamental unit.
