Physical Quantities
A physical property is a quantity that can be measured
Can you name some physical quantities?

Very small and very BIG quantities
Bacteria is very small…..it is about 0.000 001 m long…
The sun is 149 342 000 000 m away from us…
A more efficient way of expressing very big or very small number is to do so in scientific notation, using appropriate prefixes .
