∙ 14y agoYou almost correctly solved the problem of Space.
"Space" is three vectors dimension of space (ix +jy +kz) and one scalar dimension of space (r). Hamilton defined Quaternions in 1843. Einstein was correct in calling for a 4 dimesnional space, but Einstein's Spacetime is an incorrect 4 dimensional space both Physics-wise and mathematically.
Einstein and others considered time an imaginary (vector) dimension ( it) and space three real dimensions (x,y,z). This is opposite to reality where space is quaternion with one real scalar dimension (r) and three vector dimensions (ix +jy+ kz). The real dimension r is related to time by r=ct where c is the speed of light.
In summary Space is 4 dimensional and all dimensions are space one real space (r=ct) and three vector spaces (ix +jy +kz), just as you proposed,
why can't time be also a distance?
It can and it is called Quaternion Space.

∙ 14y agoThe dimension of power is (energy / time)= (force x distance) / time= (mass x distance / time2) x distance / time= mass x distance2 / time3= ML2T-3
The only dimension is length (or distance).
By using Pythagoras' theorem.
the enclosing boundary of a curved geometric figure, esp. a circle. the distance around a circle
Weight has same dimension and unit as force. Distance has same dimension and unit as displacement. So weight * distance has same dimension and unit as force * displacement. Force * displacement is work done by the force. Work divided by time to do the work is Power. So weight * distance divided by time also has same dimension and unit as Power although it is not power. S.I. unit of weight * distance divided by time is Newton *meter/second or Nms-1 (in abbr.) It's dimensions are 1, 2, -3 in mass, length and time respectively. Note that given quantity's unit can't be joule/second or watt because weight * distance is not work done, only unit and dimension are same1 . 1. Two physical quantities may have same dimensions and units but that doesn't mean they refer to same quantity.
Stopping Sight Distance
An inch, being a measure of length in the first, second, or third dimension, is less than a second which is a measure of time in the fourth dimension. Time is considered the fourth dimension in the context of spacetime, where events are viewed as occurring in a continuum made up of three spatial dimensions and one temporal dimension.
yes, but they don't know that space actually expands though it probably does.
The dimension of power is (energy / time)= (force x distance) / time= (mass x distance / time2) x distance / time= mass x distance2 / time3= ML2T-3
If you experience brake failure while driving you should turn off the engine and coast to a complete stop?
Perception Distance + Reaction Distance+ Braking Distance.
Perception Distance + Reaction Distance+ Braking Distance.
Perception Distance, Reaction Distance and Braking Distance
Perception distance plus reaction distance plus braking distance is called total stopping distance. It represents the total distance a vehicle will travel from the moment a driver recognizes a hazard until the vehicle comes to a complete stop.
Substances that distance the perception of objective reality.

The only dimension is length (or distance).
