Question
Consider the following passage, followed by three
statements. Determine the correct combination of statements that cannot be inferred from the passage: Quantum computing, with its foundation in the principles of quantum mechanics, holds the promise of revolutionizing computation. Unlike classical computers, which process information using bits that can represent either a 0 or a 1, quantum computers use quantum bits or qubits, which can exist in a superposition of both 0 and 1 states simultaneously. This ability to leverage superposition and entanglement enables quantum computers to solve certain problems exponentially faster than classical computers.I. Quantum computing is solely based on classical computing principles.II. Quantum computers are capable of solving all computational problems faster than classical computers.III. Superposition and entanglement are essential concepts in quantum computing that contribute to its computational superiority.Solution
The passage indicates that quantum computing is based on principles of quantum mechanics, not classical computing (statement I). While quantum computers can solve certain problems exponentially faster than classical computers, they are not universally faster for all computational problems (statement II). The passage explicitly mentions superposition and entanglement as essential concepts in quantum computing, contributing to its computational superiority, thus supporting statement III. Therefore, options I and II are incorrect.
