Thanks, i think that i understand a little more now. But what could be some consequences of quantum technology

i still don't understand. does quantum technology exist today, or are they still reseaching it. is a computer an example of quantum technology. If so, in what way? Is teleportation an example of quantum communication? i can't seem to find any info on quantum technology when i search...

can someone please explain what quantum really means? I've read different things on it but I'm not sure that i really understand.

Does anyone know of a website of an enyclopedia were i can find some info on this topic?

What are examples of quantum technology? and what are the detail of them?

What would be some consequences of the many world theory? Why is this theory so hard to believe? I know that slyboy had some points, but can you explain them again? I didn't really understand what was meant.

What did Einstein mean when he said, "God Does Not Play Dice" I know that is has to do something with the uncertainty principle bit i don't understand what he meant...Maybe i just don't really understand the uncertainty principle. Can someone briefly go over it.

How do i calulate the kinetic energy and speed of a particle released form a beta decay reaction? for example, if i have Na -> Mg + e (i can't type in the atomic masses and numbers) Would i subtract the mass of Mg from Na ? m=m_Na-m_Mg =23.990961u-23.985042 =0.005937u then multiply...

How do you convert 2.36eV into work?

How do i find horizontal asymptotes? Is there a derivative test for that? for example how do i find the asymptotes for y=2xe^-x^5 i know that there has to be a horizontal one, are there any others?

So i guess that there are no points of inflection either. right? How do you find pionts of inflection? Do you set the 2nd derivative equal to zero and solve for x? what do you do after that? No y-intercept, but there are 2 x-intercepts. right?

So i guess there would just be a big gap in the middle. But what would you use the max and mins for? What are the max and mins of the graph? How do you find the asymptotes? do i use the max and mins that i found?

I tried both derivatives again and got the same answer. and to find max and mins you set the first derivative equal to 0. right? Then you solve for x. doind that you find that when x= +/- √3 the derivative =0 . so they are the maximums and minimums, but they don't exist on the graph...

ya, my derivative could be wrong i tried to do they quickly but my question is what happens to the graph when -&radic;6 < x < &radic;6

What happens if you are trying a first and second derivative test on a function and they do not exist on the function (they only give errors) Also, is it possible that the critical values of a function (max, mins, points of inflection) don't extist on a function example y=-4x(x^2...
