Nge-introduction ye-blockchain, i-chatbots, i-LLM kunye nezinye iingxaki ezincinane, siye kwakhona kwi-privilege yokufumana ukufumana i-field. Thina ngokuvamile sinxheba kwi-race yokuba kuqala ukufumana i-theme okanye ukwakha into ngaphandle kwe-theme. Nangona kunjalo, oku kuthatha kwakhona ukutshintsha kwi-theme eyodwa kwi-theme elinye kwaye sikugqibela ukuba abe nomntu omnye. To pursue a field it becomes essential to resonate with the topic or the phenomenon it is trying to understand. After all it’s a long term commitment. That being said, it becomes essential to understand the origin of the technology before looking into applications of it. It helps you connect with the cause and lead you to a greater path. This not only helps you answer question like - origin of the technology, basic nature, what are we trying to solve or what evolution in the field looks like, however it brings one closer to the essence of technology. It will tell you why this is a top worth learning about (if you find it fascinating), is it worth putting efforts into to or most importantly “Is this for me?”. Quantum computing is a complex topic and diving straight into the application makes it more complicated. However, looking at the origin of it takes you much more closer to the cause. This is where the “ Kuyinto umzekelo yintoni okwenza abaziwa kubafiziki kakhulu kule nqaku kunye neenxaxheba kunokwenzeka ukucacisa iimfuneko ezininzi kwaye sinokuthi siye sinokufuneka ukuba iimfuneko ezidlulileyo zihlabathi eYurophu ezininzi ezininzi ezidlulileyo kwiinkqubo, ama-axioms okanye i-mathematics. Double Slit Experiment Izifundo ye-Double Slit Experiment I-Double Slit i-experiment yenzelwe kwi-1801 nguThomas Young kwi-The Royal Institute. Ngoko ke, kwakhona kwiminyaka engama-40. Umzekelo wokufuneka kwi-imeyile ebonakalayo ukuba ukuba iintlobo ezimbini zihlanganisa kunye nabanye zibonisa i-beat kwaye okufanelekileyo kunokwenzeka kwimibala ye-optical ngokufanelekileyo. Nangona ukhangela kwi-theory ye-corpuscular ye-Newton, uye uyifuneka ukuba ukuxhaswa kwe-air kunye ne-water kunokufunda i-reflection yaye kwindawo ezithile i-refractions yayo. Ukuphendula imibuzo embalwa efanayo, uye kwenziwe i-double slit experiment. Ndiyathanda umnxeba umnxeba umnxeba umnxeba umnxeba umnxeba umnxeba umnxeba umnxeba umnxeba umnxeba umnxeba umnxeba umnxeba umnxeba umnxeba. Ukusebenza kwe-Double Slit The basic idea behind double slit experiment is that electrons are passed thought a board that has two slits in it (as depicted in the coverage of the story) and observe the corresponding results on the screen that is being the board. Let’s understand how it works for balls 🥎 to start with. Round 1 (Balls) 1 slit A very simple depiction where first we start with small balls being thrown from just one slit. and this is how the output should look like: Ngoku, oku kubonakala kakuhle ukuba ezinye izibane ziya kubonwa kwi-screen kunye neentsimbi ezidlulileyo ziye zihlanganisa isakhiwo efana ne-wall. 2 Slits Kwiintsuku ezimbini, kuba kukho iingubo ezimbini, kuya kuba iingubo ezimbini kwi-wall. (light) Round 2 Let's repeat the experiment with a monochrome light and check how the pattern will look like when its two slits. The result shows a wave length of light where the light from two slits interacts and at someplace it cancels it effect (dark patches on wall) and other it combines thereby enhancing the light and you should be able to see that on the screen itself. However, the quantum physics has a letdown from there however lets look at how electrons behave and this will be a step towards understanding basics of quantum physics and how the qubits come into picture. Round 3 (electrons) It was quite understandable how light behaves in this manner however, while doing this experiment with electron says this: hypothesis: It behaves like small balls and will leave two lines similar to slit on the wall Above results are totally astounding, instead of behaving like small balls and creating two lines on the wall it depicts a light like behaviour. but that doesn’t seem logical. If the electron is thrown though the slits either they go though slit 1 or slit 2, it should not be behaving like that. Adding an observer To make sense out of this, it was decided that the electrons will be observed to check how this pattern is being created what electron goes through what slit and check if how they refract. Therefore, an observer was added need the split screen to observe this and the results were as follows: Yinto enye ingxaki, ukuba xa i-electrons zibonakalayo zibonakalayo ngokufanayo. Yinto apho inkcazo ye-qubit inokufumaneka. Kwixesha lokufumana iimeko, ziyi-irreversible. Yinto efana ne-cat experiment ye-Schrödinger, xa ufake ibhokisi, i-output iyakwazi ukuvuthwa. Conclusion I do not want to add any conclusions here I want to keep your thoughts fuelling. This is a phenomenon that can not be concluded easily. However, I would like to leave you with this famous quote for quantum mechanics: Ukuba i-Quantum Mechanics ayikwazanga kakhulu, ke awukwazi ukufumana. -Niels Bohr Niels Bohr If quantum mechanics has not profoundly shocked you, you have not understood it yet - Please feel free to contact if you would like to talk more about it.
