Which of the following is not a derived unit?

Derived units are formed by combining base units. Base units are fundamental and independent. As per NCERT Class 11 Chapter 2, dimensional analysis checks correctness and SI units define base and derived quantities. This principle confirms that Kilogram (kg) is correct because its dimensions and unit match the physical quantity asked.
