4th Dimension

The document discusses the dimensions and proposes the existence of a 4th dimension. It explains: 1) Current models use 3 spatial dimensions (length, width, height) plus coordinates to locate objects in space. 2) To prove a 4th dimension, a 4-axis model is needed where each axis is perpendicular to the others and passes through the origin. However, no such 4D model is possible within our 3D space. 3) Time is often proposed as the 4th dimension, though it is abstract and non-spatial. The document questions whether time should be considered the lowest dimension instead of the fourth.

The 4th Dimension

A brief explanation to why a Fourth Spatial D

7/30/2023

Muhammad Umar Shahbaz


We already know that objects can theoretically be
in either the 1st Dimension, 2nd Dimension, or the
3rd Dimension. The question is can there be a 4th
Dimension?
Let us start at the very beginning, 3D means 3 axes
which are commonly denoted as xyz.

The purpose of the 3-axis model is to help


represent an object in terms of it`s Height, Length,
Width, X-offset, Y-offset and Z-offset.
The first 3 (Height, Length and Width) describe
the space, or volume, the object is occupying
meanwhile the last 3 (X-offset, Y-offset and Z-
offset) describe the relative position of the object
in comparison with the center or origin.
The models for 1D and 2D are as the following:

1D 2D

In basic Mathematics there is a fundamental topic


called “Number patterns” In this it teaches to
recognize and follow “trends” in a sequence.
To prove the existence of the 4th Spatial Dimension
you need to be able to represent a 4th Dimensional
object. Hence you have to create a 4-axis model.
This is where the problem arises. In the 1-axis, 2-
axis and 3-axis there is a trend that is followed
which is that all axes are perpendicular to the
others and they are crossing through the origin.
However, this is not possible for a 4-axis model.
There is no place for a Fourth axis (let us call it f)
which will make it at 90° to all three axes and pass
through the origin as well.

To prove the existence of the 4th Spatial Dimension


you need to create a model which fulfills the
following requirements
 Contains 4 axes
 Each axis is perpendicular to the other 3
 Each axis passes through the origin
Should such a model be created, the existence of a
fourth spatial dimension can then be theoretically
eligible. This means that we can conclude that the
fourth dimension can`t represent matter.

Einstein says that the fourth dimension is time.


Though there isn`t any proof of this it is plausible
and eligible. Even according to the above problem,
it is eligible because time is abstract. Hence it`s
axes doesn`t need to be perpendicular to those
which represent the physical world.
What I want to point out is that is Time the
“Fourth” Dimension?? I believe that time comes
before everything else. If Depth is the 3rd
Dimension; Width is the 2nd Dimension; Length is
the 1st Dimension; A point is O Dimension; Then
Time should be -1 Dimension; And why not add
Einstein`s Theory of Relativity? Using that there
comes the -2 Dimension which is the rate of flow
of time for a certain object. I myself highly doubt
there is a -2 Dimension. Rather I believe that the
rate of flow of time for a certain object is a
property of the -1 Dimension such as perhaps it`s
Gradient, but in comparison to what?? If the Big
Bang theory truly is correct than I believe it should
be the center of the universe, a point which is
completely stationary.
