  4. The Fourth Dimension Time and Space When you watch a movie in "3-D," or three dimensions, you are probably required to wear special glasses that trick your mind into seeing depth on a flat screen.

  5. The Fourth Dimension Time and Space We will also work with a fourth dimension—time. The distance from the floor to the top of your head is your height. Stretching your arms out, the distance from one fingertip to the other is an example of width. Putting your hands in front of you provides you with the third dimension—depth.
