Spheres, how many sides??

Featured Replies

Unless it's an ideal solid.

that answer has bugged me for DAYS! and I don`t know why???

I guess I was trying to figure out what the "Ideal solid" would be?

 

I assume it means something that has no "gaps" or "empty space".

the only thing I could come up with that seemed to fit that bill was a "blackhole" and that seemed like a cop out answer :(

certainly one I`m dissatisfied with and also somewhat disappointed with myself with for not being able to comprehend an "Ideal solid" beyond that of a "blackhole".

am I in error here, or is the answer just as mundane as that; a Black Hole?

I meant a word that explains how many sides, or if iui dosnt have sides what it has.If we had a word like that there would be no reason for this thread.

"Omnifaceted" here`s my new word invention to explain the side(s) of a Sphere :)

 

actualy, if I wasn`t kidding about, I could fall for a word like that! :)

I wasnt serious about my post because this is a good debate. But a nice word like that would be helpful.

Surely the 'Unisurphace' part of your new word means one sided

actualy, he`s right, it only has one outside surface :)

720 degress and as many facets as Pi is long :)

I dont think Sayonara thought to much when he made his word up, to me it dosnt make sense.

No offense,just saying.You probably didnt want to make it make sense anyway... :rolleyes:

Thank you, thank you very much.For your cynicism. :D

So how many sides did we agree a sphere has???

Oh..then thank you :rolleyes: .Anyway back to my question how many sides.

A shere has one side, for those still wondering.

  • 2 weeks later...

on a perceptual basis and still using the ideal solid model, it has 2 sides!

the one you can see and the one you can`t! :))

 

 

just thought I`de throw a spanner in the works to get the old grey matter working again :)

I dont think a sphere has any sides.Just like cone or cylinder it has something else....Ill give it a name sside*. :cool:

*stands for "super-side"

ok, its sorted then.

 

 

spheres exists in a fractional dimension.
