Mathematically, time can be expressed as a spatial dimension as
(square root of -1) c. t. Where c is the velocity of light and t is time.
Mind you, I don't see where this will get you! - but you did ask!

4th Dimension. Just like length, width, height are dimensions; Time is a dimension. How long does it take to go from the runway at LAX Airport to 30,000 feet over Topeka, Kansas?
We think of space as 3-dimensional most of the time...but if you think of the 3-dimensional (x,y,z) coordinates of where you are standing and imagine a straight line to the moon or a star (another x,y,z point), that line would appear to move (as the earth rotates and revolves) against the sky over time. That movement is a velocity of the vector (the line is a vector...it has a direction). Velocity = change in position divided by the time it takes to go between the starting point and the end point. In Math:
V = Change in Position / Change in Time. or V = d/t where d = distance.
Time is real. Time is in your memories!!!

The chronosphere, past the biosphere and before the stratosphere. And it's about 1.3 millions miles in size, but only 1/2 an inch thick. Also, it's where babies come from.

The current estimate is that time is 15 billion years long, and growing at a rate of 1 sec/sec.

E = mc^2
E = m (d/t)^2
t^2 = m d^2 / E
The Units for Area of Time = kg m^2 / J

Supposed to be 4th dimension. But i believe time is just a relative concept. It has no dimensions
