How ??

Force:-

We know

According to newtons second law


\boxed{\sf Force=Mass* Acceleration}


\\ \sf\longmapsto Force=kgm/s^2

We don't use it


\\ \sf\longmapsto Force=Newton(N)

Hence its a derived unit.

Pressure:-


\\ \sf\longmapsto Pressure=(Force)/(Area)


\\ \sf\longmapsto Pressure=(N)/(m^2)


\\ \sf\longmapsto Pressure=Pascal(Pa)

Hence its a derived unit
