How many dimensions does space have?

Answer 1

A Network.

Start with a point, we have number 0.

A point to a line, number 1.

A line to a plane, like a sheet of paper, number 2.

A plane to a box, number 3.

*To build a simpler view, hierarchy of steps are broke down as they are above, and are only expressed to better explain higher dimensioning in a more universal representation.

Explained:

Number 4. Imagine our box as a wire frame. If you can imagine circles around our lines of axis, you have just imagined space.

Number 5. Now imagine those circles with arrows, all pointing in the same direction, because TIME moves forward.

Number 6. Now our time-based box is living in space, but it has no way of retaining its energy. This requires fabric of space, something for energies to move within, in other words a space medium.

*With the next set of three, space fabric becomes the starting point, and a new fabric is built. (Example: Compare particle physics with physics in space)

Number 7. This is where we begin to build light, or information in 6 dimensions, because light exists in the space between space, this phenomenon is perceived as a simultaneous event.

Number 8. Dimension time to run against itself. This amazingly enough, gives light the dimension it needs to travel. Draw arrows pointing the opposite direction on our circles so that we have arrows pointing in both directions, or imagine a torus. Particles of future events can be changed by altering their HISTORY, because time still exists as solid matter. (Check out the "Time Machine" on You Tube)

Number 9. On this plane of dimension, light is already running time against itself, it just needs to be implicated. In other words, your dreams can become reality. Example: Transcendence, or leaving your body.

*The next set of three involve building laws for curvature of space/time, and dimensioning is multiplied.

Number 10. To arrange all these events, multiple fabrics are set into place, and giving range of POSSIBILITIES regarding creations.

Number 11. As time and space are connected, the gravitational bending of space can bend time, so time happens as an array of possible actions, or big bangs.

12th dimension is where the laws of physics are given a range of possibilities. Only one universe is perceptible by us in existence, but different time can appear simultaneous to someone like you or me if we were time-travelers, thus becoming a smaller framework for a network of realities like an animated sponge. In other words interacting fields.

Overview:

The thing is the scale of reality is endless, and limiting this view to only 12 dimensions might be short sighted, though it seems after you restructure the laws of physics you would have the properties of a new universe. The thing is, light can not be held by these laws, giving way to an ocean of space virtually unknown to us, and is most likely held by laws of an even larger nature. (for example: The laws governing effects of Karma, or Astrology)

Answer 2

Space is commonly believed to have three dimensions - length, width, and height. However, theories in physics suggest that there may be additional dimensions beyond the three spatial dimensions that we can perceive.

Answer 3

This is one of the open questions of modern physics.

There are perceptibly four: three space dimensions and one time dimension.

However, certain physical theories work out best if there are 10 or 11 (which depends on the precise details of the theory in question), which raises the question: why don't we see these other 6 or 7 dimensions?

The best answer to that is that they're "curled up small". The analogy usually used is a tightrope walker: as far as the tightrope walker is concerned, there's only one dimension he can move in: he can go forward, or he can go backward. However, an ant on the tightrope can go forward, or backward, or sideways AROUND the rope because it's large relative to the ant.

The "extra" dimensions are therefore presumed to wrap around on themselves on a very, very small scale, so that we don't even notice them.

Answer 4

Usually three spatial dimensions and one time dimensions are recognized. However, according to String Theory, there is some evidence for a total of 10 or 11 dimensions - one of them time, the others space dimensions. In any case, only 3 space dimensions are visible at the sizes we usually deal with; the others are "compactified" and would only appear on extremely small scales.

Answer 5

Atoms are matter, and so they have at least the 3 dimensions that we are familiar with. At the quantum level, atoms or smaller particles that comprise atoms, may be associated with dimensions that are wrapped too tightly for us to experience. but there are at least the 3 space dimensions for all atoms.

Answer 6

Dimensions in SpaceAccording to Scientific American's Naked Singularities, 10.

Answer 7

The 4 confirmed dimentions are: Length, width, depth and space/time

the other 7 are thoeretical
