AI Thread Summary
Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment designed to illustrate the concept of superposition in quantum mechanics, where a cat in a sealed box can be simultaneously alive and dead until observed. The idea was proposed by physicist Erwin Schrödinger in 1935, published in the journal Naturwissenschaften in the article "Die gegenwärtige Situation in der Quantenmechanik." The experiment highlights the paradoxes of quantum mechanics and challenges classical interpretations of reality. Although it is a theoretical construct, it has implications in quantum computing and quantum information theory today. For further details, resources such as Wikipedia and academic journals provide additional insights and diagrams.

1.Show the Schroding's cat througt experiment, and please use diagrams to explain
2.Who invented the idea of Schroding's cat and way
3.In what journal was the idea frist published?start the citation properly
4.Explain what the Schroding's cat thought experiment was trying to illustrate
5.Alllthought a thought experiment it does have some particle applications today. What are they?
6.Tell me your wab sources and book references for the information you have found

thx :)

PS:Maybe you can show your owen idea about this experiment
 
Physics news on Phys.org
sounds like homework to me.
 
You will find most of your answers here:

You can find pictures and diagrams by using search engines like Google.

Tell us if you need more. :smile:
 
actually i need someone can tell me that inn what journal was the idea frist published,date pag and so on
 
It tells you that at the webpage I mentioned:

The original article appeared in the German magazine Naturwissenschaften ("Natural Sciences") in 1935: E. Schrödinger: "Die gegenwärtige Situation in der Quantenmechanik" ("The present situation in quantum mechanics"), Naturwissenschaften, 48, 807, 49, 823, 50, 844 (November 1935).

You can see the references again at places like this one:

I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
