The dimension of a physical quantity is the combination of the basic physical dimensions ( usually mass, length, time, electric charge, and temperature ) which describe it ; for example, speed has the dimension length per time, and may be measured in meters per second, miles per hour, or other units.

The concept of dimension is not restricted to physical objects.

For mathematical purposes, elementary particles are normally treated as point particles, although some particle theories such as string theory posit a physical dimension.

In dimensional analysis, a dimensionless quantity or quantity of dimension one is a quantity without an associated physical dimension.

* Even though a dimensionless quantity has no physical dimension associated with it, it can still have dimensionless units.

“ It is auditory in the physical dimension but equally powerful as a visual force in the psychological dimension .”

In theory, a system of fundamental quantities ( or sometimes fundamental dimensions ) would be such that every other physical quantity ( or dimension of physical quantity ) can be generated from them.

According to Gurdjieff, only one dimension of the three dimensions of the person — namely, either the emotions, or the physical body or the mind — tends to develop in such schools and sects, and generally at the expense of the other faculties or centers, as Gurdjieff called them.

Unpleasantness, another synonym of suffering or pain in the broad sense, is used in physical pain science to refer to the basic affective dimension of pain ( its suffering aspect ), usually in contrast with the sensory dimension, as for instance in this sentence from Professor Donald Price: “ Pain-unpleasantness is often, though not always, closely linked to both the intensity and unique qualities of the painful sensation .” Words that are roughly synonymous with suffering, in addition to pain and unpleasantness, include distress, sorrow, unhappiness, misery, affliction, woe, ill, discomfort, displeasure, disagreeableness.

The term also broadly refers to any enterprise that is potentially fraught with physical, financial or psychological risk, such as a business venture, a love affair, or other major life undertakings.
