What is entanglement?

Quantum systems sharing electrons

Quantum systems becoming spin-independent

Quantum systems becoming one quantum system in superposition

Quantum systems developing a physical connection between them

All of the above

Two particles are entangled with their spins in the same direction, and then one particle is measured as spin up. What happens to the other particle?

Its spin up state has a higher relative weight than its spin down state

It falls out of superposition and into a definite spin up state

Nothing, because it hasn’t been measured yet so it hasn’t decohered

It gains the quantum information of the first particle

None of the above

Two particles are entangled with their spins in the same direction, and then one particle is measured as spin down. How long has the other particle also been spin down?

Since the first particle was measured

Since they were first entangled

Since the beginning of time

Since you finished reading the question

Two entangled particles have four possible spin states: two where they’re in the same direction, and two where they’re in different directions. How many spin states does a system of three entangled particles have?

Five

Six

Seven

Eight

If ten particles are entangled together to become one quantum system, how many measurements would it take to make all ten of them fall out of superposition?

Five

Two

One

None, we already knew their spin when we entangled them
