I've heard that quantum computing is faster than conventional computing and can break almost all of our security, but how? What could quantum computing be used for? What can conventional computers do that quantum cant? What can quantum computers do that conventional cant?

I'm newbie. I'm just a physics enjoyer. I have a questions to discuss.

I just came here to find answers to the questions in my mind.

Hello everyone, I'm a CS student who likes physics and have physics questions from time to time and don't know anyone who knows anything about physics, so I thought this would be a good place to find answers sometimes. I'm learning some physics on my own too, but it will probably be a while...

Here’s what I’ve tried so far: For the JK flip-flop counter: I’ve looked into how to design counters using JK flip-flops, but I’m not sure how to implement the specified counting sequence (0-2-4-5 and back, depending on the input). For the sequential circuit with T flip-flops: I understand the...

Just another new member reading previously asked questions

Hi I'm 50 years on from certain scientific questions running through my head as a child, and hopefully can now contribute something useful to the discussions.

TL;DR Summary: I need to make sense of this question: What was the distance from the line-of-sight of the builder's level to the outlet end of the first 10' length of pipe? I am enrolled in an online course in plumbing at Stratford Career Institute. At the end of each chapter in my plumbing...

HI all! New here, have tons of questions about physics :)

For example. I have a question, about what branch of physics would the question be asked? And is that how you do it here? Ask questions based on which branch it might concern? Is there a questions topic anywhere? I looked. Many times. I'm not even sure if this section is the place to ask...

Just joined. Not a physicist. Attorney since 1997 but repressed natural sciences mind. That “textbook” ad above may not be a good sign, kiddos(?). Eventually one’s brother, no matter how smart, like my old physics teachers, finds no more entries in the “index”, and we passed pat answers long...

Hello, I'm new here. I hope someone can answer my questions. Happy to be here

Hi, I've been reading questions and their answers for a while now, and now, I have lots of questions to ask!

These are the questions I am failing to comprehend despite their very basic nature This is the wonderful support from the book explaining how to get the answer ! (It just gives you the answer no working out which is annoying) I

Looking for online help with math and other questions.

I've noticed lots of physics professors reply before you finish talking. Not specifically talking about questions in a lecture etc, I mean more generally. Not sure how common it is in other disciplines or why, but generally they don't tend to let you finish. As a result often when someone has a...

I am currently taking some time off of college (I am a sophomore), and I'm trying to continue coding and experimenting with Calculus-y math as I'll be going into Calculus II and then III when I go back. I am currently trying to develop a 3D baseball pitch visualizer for my own purposes. I am not...

I'm here to chat about physics and its implecations, discuss research, and ask question bothering me.

Is there a category to ask physics questions based on very little information? Namely a YouTube video that discusses a topic in a way that confuses me that I merely want clarification on?

A layperson who often bumps into tricky physics questions which require somebody who knows more than me.
