reyam200 Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 space it represented as a grid(at least thats an easy way to think of it) so, if an object were to shift to be at a 90degree angle to that grid would it disappear? how would it effect space? would it cause distortions? like the waves caused by a rock dropping into a pond. if it is possible, how would you acheve it?
ecoli Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 space is three demensions. I suppose an object would disappear from you imaginary grid, but it's really not a very accurate way of looking at it in the first place.
reyam200 Posted December 12, 2005 Author Posted December 12, 2005 ok, so correct me. whats a accurate view of space, what can it be compared to.
Daecon Posted December 13, 2005 Posted December 13, 2005 Grids have an X and Y axis. 3-D grids have an X and Y and Z axis. (Imagine going down into the paper that the grid is drawn on.) Does this help?
reyam200 Posted December 15, 2005 Author Posted December 15, 2005 yes, i understand. partly. i just need to study more. thanks.
Euclid Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 Are you trying to say what would happen if you could create a 2 dimentional object and then shift/turn it on edge in 3 dimentional space?
Xyph Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 It would be like a 4 dimensional object with only a part of it in 3 dimensional space, I suppose... Maybe you'd get just the middle "slice" of the object, 1 planck length thick, or somesuch.
