Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: Length
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:
Analogy type: measurement mapping. “Celsius” is a temperature scale; temperature is the physical quantity. We must mirror this by pairing “metre” (a base SI unit) with its physical quantity: length (distance).
Given Data / Assumptions:
Recovery-First applied: original options lacked “length,” so we minimally repaired the option set to include the correct physical quantity while keeping the item’s intent unchanged.
Concept / Approach:
Keep the relation “unit/scale → measurand.” Metre measures length; “depth” is a particular dimension of length but is not the general physical quantity; “kilometer” is another unit; “tall” is an adjective; “speed” is different quantity (m/s).
Step-by-Step Solution:
Verification / Alternative check:
SI base units list metre as the unit of length.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
They are either subtypes, other units, adjectives, or unrelated quantities.
Common Pitfalls:
Confusing a specific dimension (depth) with the general quantity (length).
Final Answer:
Length
