Super computer and super conductor both are different applications. Super conductors used in hvac/hvda transmission system which can bear a high voltage/current, but the super computer means high speed.

Why do airplanes use supercomputers?
Airplanes not necessarily use supercomputers but, supercomputers are used to design airplanes. One of the many uses of supercomputers is to model how wind and turbulence affect an airplane. Supercomputers are also used in advanced flight simulators.
Why superconductors are not used often in everyday activities?
Because at present all superconductors must be super-cooled in a coolant such as liquid nitrogen to become superconductors.
How are superconductors different from conductors?
In superconductors, no electricity is wasted because there is no resistance to the flow of electrons. In conductors any electricity not used, is wasted.
Why are scientists trying to make superconductors that can work at warmer temperatures?
Because refrigerating superconductors to the cryogenic temperatures needed by current ones is expensive, severely limiting the applications they are used in.Metallic superconductors need cooling to the temperature of liquid helium.Copper oxide ceramic superconductors need cooling to the temperature of liquid nitrogen.Room temperature superconductors, if they exist, would need little or no cooling.
Do superconductors have a role in telecommunications?
Yes, they are used in telecommunications base stations.Some components needed in telecommunications base stations, most importantly filters, have better performance when superconductors are used instead of metals.
What contains bismuth?
Bismuth can be used in:- medicines- alloys- cosmetics- superconductors
What CPU is currently being used in supercomputers?
That depends on the supercomputer.
Which os is used in supercomputers?
Usually a customized version of Linux.
Which has the lowest resistance semiconductors superconductors insulator conductor?
superconductors, they have no resistance.
What are most modern high temperature superconductors made of?
Resistance decreases with the decrease of temperature. Superconductors are made by lowering the temperature.
How Superconductivity arises in high temperature superconductors?
I think so the super conducting material used will melt
What are the uses of a superconductor?
Superconductors have zero resistance, and are used in powerful magnets for MRI etc, and magnetic levitation.
