How do you think society will be different if scientists are able to create a chip that will perform a trillion operations in a single second?

Life wouldn't really change all that much with the invention of such a chip. It would certainly give us the capacity to study complex subjects in quantum mechanics and the like, but a chip like that would not hit the consumer market for years. We would slowly see a trickle down of improved technologies that resulted from the chip (as we have with every other major discovery in the past), starting with the rich and influential and working its way down to everyone else, but life would not fundamentally change.

What do Surgeons use to perform delicate operations by manipulating devices through computers instead of manually?
Surgeons use robotics, highly advanced technology that is very precise beyond normal human capabilities, to perform delicate operations.
High-capacity computers with hundreds of thousands of processors that can perform more than one trillion calculations per second are called?
supercomputers
What does computers mean?
The definition of computer is:Also called processor. an electronic device designed to accept data, perform prescribed mathematical and logical operations at high speed, and display the results of these operations.
In addition to the four primary computer operations today's computer typically also perform what functions?
In addition to Input, processing, Output, and storage today's computers also perform communications functions.
What are the different types of computer code?
Computer programs are categorized into system and application software. To make a complete computer system, programs (software) works hand in hand with hardware.
Why do you have to use order of operations for every problem?
Because if you perform the operations in a different order your answer will be wrong.
How many cutting and forming operations can a machinist perform on a screw machine?
Using these machines, a machinist may perform up to 32 different types of cutting and forming operations.
What is to perform the indicated operations?
It means to Simplify
What are the functions of the ALU?
to perform arthmatic and logical operations
What do scientists perform to collect data?
Scientists perform experiments to collect data.
What do you understand by operators in BASIC?
Operators are the symbols, which are used to perform different arithmetical and logical operations in BASIC.
If Commander Data could perform 60 trillion operations per second then wasn't it hard for him to slow down to our speed?
No. Is it hard for your Computer Monitor screen to sit perfectly still or do slow motion video? No!
Where do scientists perform their work?
In a laboratory.
What happens when you perform arithmetic operations mixing different types of variables in java programming?
Java performs an implicit conversion to a unifying type.
How do you divide and multiply notations?
You do not divide or multiply notations: you perform those operations on numbers which are expressed in different notations. How you do that depends on which notation you are concerned with.
What do surgeons use to perform delicate operations?
robotics
