Some cosmological theories suggest the universe may be either 10 or 11 dimensional.

As far as Stephen Hawking goes ... there is no limit to the number of dimensions that can be considered on a theoretical basis, and in fact certain problems in physics are best treated in "Hilbert space", which is an abstract vector space with an infinite number of dimensions. How many dimensions Dr. Hawking uses for any given calculation would therefore depend on exactly what it is that he's calculating.

It isn't just Stephen Hawking. Anybody who works with string theory is accustomed to a Universe with more dimensions - often 10, 11, or 26, depending on the specific theory.

Why time has 4 dimensions?

Time is one dimension, not four. If you combine it with space, you can "visualize" it as four dimensions: three dimensions of space, one of time. Sort of visualize it - we can't really visualize four dimensions.


What are the four physical dimensions?

The four physical dimensions are length, width, height, and time. Length refers to the measurement of an object in one direction, width in a second direction perpendicular to the length, height in a third perpendicular to both length and width, and time is the dimension in which events occur sequentially.


What is 5 dimensional art?

Five-dimensional space is the equivalent of three-dimensional space extended into two additional dimensions, such as time and probablity, or time and gravitic shifts. Normally multiple dimensions are abstract mathematics used in astrophysics and particle physics. A fifth dimensional solid is called a "penteract". This is an extension of the 4-dimensional tesseract. (see related link)

Did Stephen Hawking appear on the Star Trek show?

In Star Trek: The Next Generation, 6-26 (Descent, Part 1), Data is in the opening scene playing poker with 3 holographic characters. Each character was a brilliant scientist in history, Sir Issac Newton, Albert Einstein and, of course, Steven Hawking, who obviously played himself. The whole purpose was for Data to study the social aspects of brilliant minds while in a game of chance. On a trivial note, Newton and Data folded after a hefty bet by Hawking. Einstein believed he was bluffing and challenged him. Einstein lost to Hawking's four sevens.
