👉 Platelike is a term that refers to an object or situation that has the appearance of being round, but actually exists in three dimensions. It can be used in various contexts, such as physics, engineering, and geometry. For example, a platelike body may have a flat surface at its center, with no visible edges or corners. In physics, it is often used to describe objects that do not follow the laws of classical mechanics, which are commonly known as Newtonian mechanics.
