Superposition is where an object can be in two or more states, places, or realities, at the same time. This occurs at the subatomic level and is an important factor in Quantum mechanics.
Superposition does not happen to objects that are at the atomic level or higher. They obey Newtonian physics, and each object can only be in one state, place, or reality at any given time.
A scientist by the name of Erwin Schrödinger tried to explain the difference between the two in a story called: Schrödinger's cat. ---- ---- == == == == ----
In general, a superposition theory states that components combine then they have the same effect as when they act alone, (In other words you can just work out the algebraic sum.) The superposition theorem for electrical circuits states that for a linear system the current in any branch of a circuit having more than one independent source is the algebraic sum of the currents produced by the sources acting alone.
If a bed of rocks is beneath another than it can be assumed it is older and must have been laid down first (except for if it has been overturned or very folded)
It states that the action of a given system of forces on a rigid body will in no way be changed if another system of forces in equillibrium is added to or removed from the given system.

superposition can find the voltage and current effect of each source to a particular branch of the circuit and we can calculate the total effect of the sources to know the effect of the total sources to that branch
In horizontal sedimentary rock layer the oldest layer at the bottom. Each higher is the youngest than the layer below it.
superposition of waves is the vector sum of the individual displacements
Yes. That's why only photons (no rest mass) can be in two places at once.
There are numerous applications. The easiest and most commonplace I can think of right now, is the condition of not being able to hear anything clearly when more than two people speak loudly at the same time. This occurs due to destructive and constructive interferance, which is caused by superposition.Another view:The principle of superposition is a consequence of the linearity of the underlying wave equations for light (and sound, though only approximately). This means that there is no scattering of light by light: two wave packets can travel right through each other without interacting.As far as your daily life goes, this means that you can look at someone across the room without their image becoming distorted by the (very many) electromagnetic waves flying around the room in various directions: e.g. radio waves, microwaves (e.g. from Bluetooth devices), infra-red from warm bodies, visible light and so on.If light violated the principle of superposition to any great degree, vision would be far less useful.
Yes. We can apply the superposition theorem to an A.C. Network.
Superposition theorem is not applicable on non-linear networks.
Yes. We can apply the superposition theorem to an A.C. Network.
It is applied not only for the elements f the network but also for the sourcesssss
Superposition theorem can be applied if- 1) The network is linear 2) The solution of the network is unique
no
we cant consider two source at a time in superposition theorem....but power =v*i.so we cant calculate power.

Why be use does Superposition. imposissition waves wavees 2 direction opposite interference!
Yes, the theorem still applies for AC.
Yes, superposition theorem holds true in AC circuits as well. You must first convert an AC circuit to the phasor domain and the same rules apply.
