So if some of the latest theories are right and the initial "inflation" of the Universe occured at a rate faster than the speed of light, what could have been the state of the energy/mass inflating bearing in mind E=M C2 ?

I posted a simple question yesterday, that didn't have a simple answer - well I asked for a single number - there were only two possibilities, and everyone answered wrong.
The correct answer was "2" but everyone posted the answer as "3" which was wrong.
Just a little while ago, I posted a hint in the details of that question.

Which should be obvious if you bothered to read the details.
But peeps are in such a rush, they don't read the details.

By the way, even the level 5's failed to answer correctly - before I posted the Hint. I'll be back in a couple hours to see if anyone bothered to read the hints.

Yes, this is one set of 10 points, you peeps really gotta work for to get.
I think I will start asking more trick questions in the future, for the sake of provoking and stimulating intelligence where it needs to be - you're welcome to help "shake the trees, to see what falls out" and ask some trick questions too.

If you could shrink a car down to the size of an electron. (Yeah, I know. Lets just pretend we can) would it start to exhibit wave properties? If so, why? What is it about being small that causes things to behave that way?

On the ride "Spindletop" at the amusement park Six Flags Over Texas, people stood against the inner wall of a yellow vertical cylinder with radius 2.5 m. The cylinder started to rotate and when it reached a constant rotation rate of 0.60 rev/s, the floor on which people were standing dropped about 0.5 m. The people remained pinned against the wall.

a.) Draw a force diagram for a person on this ride, after the floor has dropped.

b.) What minimum coefficient of static friction is required if the person on the ride is not to slide downward to the new position of the floor?

c.) Does your answer in part (b) depend on the mass of the passenger? (Note: When the ride is over, the cylinder is slowly brought to rest. As it slows down, people slide down the walls to the floor.)

Our megnetic north changes every million years or so and I am curious as to why and how this occurrs. Would it have anything to do with our molten metallic core moving or just due to the fact that our constant spin on our axis causes it.

Ok you have a negitive and a positive mass and they attract each other and gain energy but because there is a 0 inbetween them they can never meet but they gain more energy the more they move. Basicaly I believe this is what is at the center of our universe and the basic building blocks of all matter. what do you think of my moronic ideas? Thanks for responces.
