physical property - a property used to characterize physical objects

dimension - the magnitude of something in a particular direction (especially length or width or height)

circumference - the length of the closed curve of a circle

diam, diameter - the length of a straight line passing through the center of a circle and connecting two points on the circumference

radius, r - the length of a line segment between the center and circumference of a circle or sphere

longness - spatial extent

shortness - the property of being of short spatial extent

fundamental measure, fundamental quantity - one of the four quantities that are the basis of systems of measurement

temporal property - a property relating to time

longness - duration as an extension

protraction, lengthiness, prolongation, continuation - the consequence of being lengthened in duration

endlessness - the property of being (or seeming to be) without end

shortness - the property of being of short temporal extent

brevity, briefness, transience - the attribute of being brief or fleeting

permanence, permanency - the property of being able to exist for an indefinite duration

impermanence, impermanency - the property of not existing for indefinitely long durations

extent - the distance or area or volume over which something extends; "the vast extent of the desert"; "an orchard of considerable extent"

leg - (nautical) the distance traveled by a sailing vessel on a single tack

size - the physical magnitude of something (how big it is); "a wolf is about the size of a large dog"

arm's length - a distance sufficient to exclude intimacy

gauge - the distance between the rails of a railway or between the wheels of a train

light time - distance measured in terms of the speed of light (or radio waves); "the light time from Jupiter to the sun is approximately 43 minutes"

skip distance - the shortest distance that permits radio signals (of a given frequency) to travel from the transmitter to the receiver by reflection from the ionosphere

wingspan, wingspread - linear distance between the extremities of an airfoil

wingspread - distance between the tips of the wings (as of a bird or insect) when fully extended

altitude - the perpendicular distance from the base of a geometric figure to opposite vertex (or side if parallel)

segment, section - one of several parts or pieces that fit with others to constitute a whole object; "a section of a fishing rod"; "metal sections were used below ground"; "finished the final segment of the road"
