The 4th Dimension

A brief explanation to why a Fourth Spatial D

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.
