Perhaps, sense qualities are energies, and their intensities are energy densities {energy and sensations}. Perhaps, perceptual surfaces have types of kinetic and/or potential energy.
Physical forces have one dimension, because they are interactions between particles. Vectors represent forces. Physical energies have no dimensions, because they are integrals of forces over distances. Scalars represent energies. Physical energies can flow, so intensities have one dimension. Vectors represent intensities. Perhaps, sensations have more than one dimension, because they combine properties.
Heat, an extensive quantity, makes temperature, an intensive quantity. Perhaps, brain energy makes mind intensity {heat and temperature and sensations}.
Potential energies are scalars and have type, amount, radial distance, azimuth, and elevation. Sensations are not vectors, because sense qualities do not have direction or flow. Like potential energies, sensations are in fields. Sensations have azimuth, elevation, and radial distance. Perhaps, sensations are like non-physical potential energies {potential energy and sensations}.
