All of the following statements about classical mechanics are true except one.

all objects move with wave-like motion

objects gain or lose energy in any amount

the materials demonstrate wave-particle duality

size and mass of objects obscures any quantum effects

probability maps where we find the electrons 90% of the time

orbits, or paths were electrons travel at set distances from the nucleus, like the moon around the earth

probability mapes where we find the electrons 100% of the time

Wave -particle duality is supported by...

electrons behaving as particles with ordinary matter

electrons behaving as waves when travelling through space

What does the photoelectric effect involve?

Light hitting metal and knocking off electrons

Explain the concept of quantum entanglement and its implications for information transfer.

Quantum entanglement allows for instantaneous state correlation between particles, impacting secure information transfer but not enabling faster-than-light communication.

Entangled particles can be used to teleport physical objects instantly.

Quantum entanglement allows for faster-than-light communication.

Quantum entanglement has no effect on information security.

What does the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle state about the measurement of particles?

The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle states that the more accurately the position of a particle is measured, the less accurately its momentum can be known, and vice versa.

The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle indicates that particles can exist in multiple places at once without measurement.

The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle states that position and momentum can be measured simultaneously with perfect accuracy.

The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle only applies to large particles, not subatomic ones.

Describe the phenomenon of quantum tunneling and its significance in quantum mechanics.

Quantum tunneling is the phenomenon where particles pass through potential barriers, significant for processes like nuclear fusion and quantum computing.

Quantum tunneling is a method for particles to gain mass when passing through barriers.

Quantum tunneling only occurs in classical mechanics and has no relevance in quantum physics.

Quantum tunneling is the process of particles gaining energy from potential barriers.

Define quantum states and superposition in the context of quantum systems.

Quantum states are the complete descriptions of quantum systems, and superposition is the principle that allows these systems to exist in multiple states at once.

Quantum states are only applicable to classical systems.

Superposition means a quantum system can only exist in one state at a time.

Quantum states are random and have no specific description.

How does wave-particle duality challenge classical physics concepts?

Wave-particle duality challenges classical physics by showing that entities can exhibit both wave and particle characteristics, defying the classical distinction between the two.

Wave-particle duality confirms classical physics concepts.

Wave-particle duality eliminates the need for quantum mechanics.

Wave-particle duality only applies to macroscopic objects.

What experimental evidence supports the theory of quantum entanglement?

Quantum superposition experiments

Photoelectric effect observations

What is quantum teleportation and how is it achieved?

Quantum teleportation involves entangling two particles, performing measurements on one particle, and using the results to manipulate the other particle into the desired state.

Quantum teleportation is achieved by using traditional communication methods to transfer particles between locations.

Quantum teleportation involves creating a copy of a particle and sending it to a different location.

Quantum teleportation is a form of time travel that allows particles to move instantaneously through space.

What is the significance of quantum entanglement in quantum computing?

Quantum entanglement enables faster computation and enhanced security in quantum computing.

Quantum entanglement slows down computation in quantum computing

Quantum entanglement has no impact on quantum computing

Quantum entanglement causes errors in quantum computing
