By the way, If exponentiating a number or unit to the power or 2 or 3, does not necessarily render (because it is dependent on the geometrical space, or whatever else) a 2-dimensional space, or a 3-dimensional space, why should we keep naming this precise operations as "squaring", or "cubing"...

Well, in my second post I provided a simple mathematical context; I did not provide a name for it, but it was very simple, and it did not contradict in any way the Euclidean Space, which is adequate (as far as I am concerned) and usually the one employed to deal with simple mathematical figures...

By this definition then (3m)3 will only equal to 9m? 9m3 is out of the game because it will "add" 2 extra dimensions; or will it actually equal to 9m3 but we will necessarily consider it to be only in one dimension because we had not previously agreed that were going to consider m3 in 3...

Just create an outlook or gmail specially for this FB account. Your name could be Cool Joe; add a picture of an african frog; and suscribe to the pages where you want to receive news from. That's it.

Goldfishes and Traffic Jams come in many sizes, so they are not good mathematical examples; standard size cans of Coke or Red Bull are better ones. And no, I don't work for the Coke or Red Bull Marketing Department in case you are wondering :) Who implied that Time was a human concept? You...

I decided to explain my question better because the answers I was receiving seemed to be considering mathematics as a tool for measuring physical units, and not as a realm in itself. Yes mathematics can serve physical measurement purposes, but limiting the scope of mathematics to physical...

By these, are you implying that e.g. by squaring a meter, it is totally arbitrary (and not mathematically certain) for one to decide at whim wether a square meter it is contained within one dimension, or in two dimensions? So is it totally possible to have a squared or cubed meter contained...

The word usually leaves space for something else seldom ocurring: are there any physical examples of time quantities being put on the numerator against another physical units on the denominator. e.g. To measure how many seconds flow per meter (s/m) or how much time is contained in one meter? The...

First of all I want to thank everyone (symbolipoint, Jack, and Stephen) for joining this conversation. I have to say Stephen that your answer is quite enlightening, I understood what you meant, and it has invited me to think in new ways towards this subject. Still, my question remains and have...

Hello everyone, What does mathematically a second squared means? Let us consider we have a Car that is traveling through space from point A to point B. At point A it has 0 velocity; and at point B it reaches a velocity of 1m/s. The acceleration therefore is 1m/s squared. For example: Let us...
