If time is necessary for movement then there would have to be time in a 2 dimensional world. Would that make time the 3rd dimension in this world? Then what about in first dimension? I'm not sure we should classify time as a dimension if it's just a part of every dimension. |

Many physicists consider space and time one in the same. I also have this view as the concept of time is but an explanation from an observer of the universe as a means of comparison to aid in understanding and explanation. Without the comparison of now to then, is there really time? Or just our movement through spacetime? |
