Those questions are anything but easy. What makes you think physicists or philosophers or anyone have access to some fundamental truths?
 
Sorry, this doesn't meet criteria for posting in philosophy. Moving to GD.
 
The questions are very easy and need no thought.

Who are you? me
What are you? human
When are you? now
Where are you? here
How are you? sick
Why are you? I'm human and born here
 
Well I guess you went with the logical route.
 
Sorry. I thought it would be fun. If these are not philosophy questions then I have no idea what philosophy is.

Logic as opposed to nonsense? Nonsense is even easier.

How these two differ:
Who are you?
What are you?

I understand that "Who" refers to living while "What" refers to non living in this context. But, You cannot be multiple entities simultaneously.

There are few short answers here. With no disrespect implied, you're asking a bunch of analytical thinkers to answer what looks like an USWeekly quiz. Philosophy has a fine line between relavant questions and redundant questions. The length of that line is however debatable (ba-da-dut-dum!)
Who are you?
What are you?
When are you?
Where are you?
How are you?
Why are you?
One "short" answer for 1-4: I am either who, what, when or where; I say, anyone but I says, the ultimate truth says, or some combination therin. As for 5 and 6, you'll have to ask the ultimate truth.
Good luck with that.:cool:
