dear waqar u ve posted very informative post regarding units.i m realy impressed with ur contribution.i dont want to say but i saw some wrong units
for example newton is the unit of force not of work.u may confirm it
an other is farad,farad is unit of capacitance
candela is unit of luminous intensity
decibel is unit of intensity of sound just like bel deci bel is 1/10 th ratio of sound intensity
faraday and coulomb both are units of electric charge but in SI unit system coulomb is used widely while faraday is used in electrochemistry(it was correct by u i just wanted to modify that for u/
horse power is unit of mechanical power not power or electrical power
henry is unit of inductance not induction
joule is also unit of energy,work both
weber is unit of magnetic flux
ok that i found some.i hope u ll correct them next time. thanks take care
