    In physics, a quantity that can be measured or the result of a measurement - is called physical quantity. Length, mass ,velocity etc are physical quantities. We can measure them by using a standard unit.

    For example - the length of a string is 2m. Here 'length' is a physical quantity and it means that the string's length is two times the standard unit of length(here-1 meter).
