[Tycho?] Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 You've all been watching "Cube 2 - Hypercube" wayyyyyy too much. A piece of paper is 3D. The cube drawn it is a representation of something 3D. A square drawn on it is of something 2D. Seeing that we can't interpret the fourth dimension (apart from the concept of time)' date=' there's no point in talking about it because it has no use to us.[/quote'] Before you say stuff you should have some idea of what you're talking about. Reading this thread might be a good start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuzzer Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 Then.. What is 1D object? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sayonara Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 A point. If it were an "actual" object, it would be a singularity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattd Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Then.. What is 1D object? A point. actually, it's a line. a zero dimensional object is a point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Tycho?] Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Then.. What is 1D object? A line, with zero width. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gasparri Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 3-d space would be like a picture, never moving. There must be a fouth dimension, time, for you to even consider dimensions. Ever thought of time as nothing more than an 'instrument' with which motion is measured? Like a ruler measures feet? Time has no entity, time as a dimension does not exist. What is the 4th? Sphere element metric. A volume that is limited by the extremes of it's container. V= 4/3Pi*r^3 Time then is a mirage and the mind is thirsty for it but it 'evaporates' as we close in on it in the desolate dessert of science under the scorching sun of subjective speculation misinterpreted as fact.

Gasparri Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 I think we've had this discussion more recently than 3 years ago.... Have a search... I did. Probably not very well though. Could you provide appropriate search keys or some pointers please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tugrul Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Well, when something moves, it is creating an event, thus moving through time.law ? I dont think things move through time, i belive that things are time. I see existance of quantum matter time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
