A multi-dimensional being reaches down to Earth and pulls you out of the universe. You are then thrown back into the universe at
a place and time of the being's choosing, and you are permitted to leave only after you have identified your surroundings. This process is repeated several times. Through a scientifically unexplainable miracle, you are able to survive in every one of the places that you find yourself. In each scenario below, identify your surroundings (and potentially your cosmic era) from among the choices given. You find yourself in a place that is unimaginably hot and dense. A rapidly changing gravitational field randomly warps space and time. Gripped by these huge fluctuations, you notice that there is but a single, unified force governing the universe. Required:
Where are you?
In the study of the evolution of the universe, it has been determined before Plank time (before the big bang and right after it), the early universe had the following characteristics:
There was only one single force acting over all that existed.
The early universe was very hot and dense because all matter had contracted before the big bang.
Space and time were wrapped.
These characteristics match the ones described, based on this, we can conclude you are in an early universe.
The frequency of the piano string is <em>1059 Hz</em>.
Explanation:
The frequency beat (fb), 2 beats/second, is the absolute difference between the frequency of the tuning fork (1056 Hz) and the frequency of the piano string.
As the piano string gets tightened, the frequency beat becomes 3 beats/second.
