+ | Any physical quantity can be expressed by using as fundamental | ||
+ | unit either energy, mass, length or time. | ||
+ | |||
+ | \begin{align} | ||
+ | ct&\approx \ell\Longrightarrow {\rm time}\approx{\rm length},\\ | ||
+ | E&\approx mc^2\Longrightarrow {\rm energy}\approx{\rm mass},\\ | ||
+ | E&\approx pv\Longrightarrow {\rm energy}\approx{\rm momentum},\\ | ||
+ | Et&\approx \hbar\Longrightarrow {\rm energy}\approx{\rm (time)^{-1}}\approx | ||
+ | {\rm (length)^{-1}}. | ||
+ | \end{align} | ||
