Video transcript

Hi everyone here, we have a question where our goal is using S. I. Base unit to derive a unit for surface density density equals mass over area. So our S. I unit for mass, it's kilograms in R. S. I. Unit for area is a meter squared, so our density is going to equal kilograms over meter squared. And that is our final answer. Thank you for watching. Bye.
