If the universe were played in reverse, the fundamental laws of physics would remain the same. However, the direction of time would be reversed, meaning that events would occur in reverse chronological order.
Yes, the concept of entropy, which is the measure of disorder in a system, would still apply in a reversed universe. However, the direction of entropy would also be reversed, meaning that the universe would become more ordered over time.
If the universe were played in reverse, the expansion of the universe would appear to be a contraction. This is because the universe is currently expanding, but in a reversed universe, it would appear to be contracting as all matter and energy move closer together.
In a reversed universe, life and consciousness would also appear to be moving in reverse. This means that people would age backwards and events would occur in reverse order. It is unclear if consciousness would still exist in this scenario.
In a reversed universe, the Big Bang would appear to be a Big Crunch, with all matter and energy collapsing in on itself. The universe would then appear to shrink into a single point, rather than expanding outward as it did in our universe.
