In Physics , space and time are combined to become a "Space Continuum". This mathematical concept is known as â??space-time" and has space representing the first three dimensions and time the fourth. By combining space and time into a "Minowski Space", Physicists have simplified the workings of space at both subatomic and super galactic levels.

∙ 13y agoI think it's actually called space-time continuum with the hyphen. Space-time is the concept of time and three-dimensional space regarded as fused in a four-dimensional continuum. A continuum is a continuous sequence in which adjacent elements are not perceptibly different from each other, although the extremes are quite distinct. Basically, the speed at which you travel through space will determine the speed at which you travel through time. When you reach near the speed of light your clock is at its slowest. IF you could exceed the speed of light you would, theoretically, travel back in time. So, as 4 dimensions, we can pick a place (which is in 3 dimensions) and a time (the forth dimension). For example, on Sunday, June 18, 1815 (time), Napoleon was defeated at the battle of Waterloo near Waterloo, Belgium (place). Another example, tomorrow (time) you might take a trip to Paris, France (place). You see, space and time are fused in a continuos sequence.

What is the Welsh for space?
Lle (place) Gwagle (space, void) Gofod (space) Encyd (space; while) Ysbaid (space of time)
How does time effect space?
Time doesn't affect space. Space and time are the same thing in relativity; that's why we call it spacetime. Mass affects spacetime and spacetime affects mass.
Why do track runners run their races counter-clockwise does it have anything to do with the theory of time and space continum?
Its tradition. Certainly it has nothing to do with space and time.
What will happen if there's a gap in the space-time continum?
Then the universe will be destroyed and put in a never ending time loop
Is 869 a prime number?
no....69 is the only prime number known to mankind at this point in time, during the time space continum
What does a turkey dream?
it dreams about a scientific geological spiz colaps that damges the whole space time continum and also bums in a park
Time travel spells?
there real but there rare and hard to get some people jsut make up ones to waste peoples time my goal is to learn one and surf in the space time continum
What would happen if life was not made?
If life were not made, you couldn't have asked this question. It would therefore tear the space-time Continum because life was created. Also, polio.
When Could you become offside from a throw in?
You cannot be offside in a throw in unless the space time continum becomes corrupt and the throw in never existed. Or if the ball you are playing with is actually a chicken.
If you travel round a planet at light speed why does it distort the space time continum?
That's not a general law of nature. It only happens if you are Superman, and if the writers have decided that it will happen, and if Lois Lane has had a bad day.
What is the health continum?
The figure of health
What is competency continum?
the ability to continuously gather, interpret, and utilize information when applicable
A system of objects that are not moving with respect with each other?
it is called continum in motion
What were the primitive times?
I doubt it, because my defintion of primative Earth involves a ball of hot gasses and debris forming from the disc around the newly formed Sun. Primative depends how far back in time you want to go.
