Question

write short notes

1)Convergence of technologies

2)Sensors and actuators

3)superposition

4)qubit

Answer 1

1)

Technological convergence is the tendency for technologies that were originally unrelated to become more closely integrated and even unified as they develop and advance. For example, watches, telephones, television, computers, and social media platforms began as separate and mostly unrelated technologies, but have converged in many ways into interrelated parts of a telecommunication and media industry, sharing common elements of digital electronics and software.

2)

Sensors and actuators track different signals, operate through different means, and must work together to complete a task. They are also physically located in different areas and often used in separate applications. While sensors are responsible for tracking data that comes into a machine, actuators perform actions.

3)

Superposition is the ability of a quantum system to be in multiple states at the same time until it is measured. This essential principle of quantum mechanics is often illustrated by an experiment carried out in 1801 by the English physicist, Thomas Young.

4)

A qubit is a two-state quantum-mechanical system, one of the simplest quantum systems displaying the peculiarity of quantum mechanics.
