4th Dimension
The mathematical extension of the concept of 3D space and the limit to the observable universe.
Ground Zero. The Point.
An abstract idealization of an exact position, without size, in physical space. As zero-dimensional objects, points are usually taken to be the fundamental indivisible elements comprising the space, of which one-dimensional curves, two-dimensional surfaces, and higher-dimensional objects consist. Often in physics and mathematics, it is useful to think of a point as having non-zero mass or charge.
Mathematical Dimensions. Learn the Lingo.
Dimensions in mathematics: A direction in space that can be measured, like length, width, or height.
Degrees of freedom: the number of independent parameters or values required to specify the state of an object.
