On a QWERTY keyboard, the keys have been placed strategically so that the majority of words can be typed with two hands rather than one.
This means that the hands will not constantly cross over each other, block each other or bump each other, which speeds up the typing.
QWERTY first appeared on typewriters. The first typewriters had letters in alphabetical order, which, when the keys were pressed, often caused jamming and clashing. So QWERTY was very carefully invented, so the complicated typebars in typewriters didn't clash.
This invention made typewriters easier and faster to type on with minimal jamming. With the invention of the computer keyboard, QWERTY is used for similar reasons, although the ink typebars are removed completely on keyboards - speed and to avoid your hands running into each other.
Because it is was already the standard for typewriters and when a better method came (Dvorak). People were already used to to QWERTY.
Note: Dvorak optimized his keyboard for speed in typing ordinary English language text by professional secretaries (e.g. business letters, memos, books, magazine and newspaper articles). There is no evidence that it would be any better than the QWERTY (or any other keyboard layout) for the often largely numerical computer data or use by nonprofessional typists.
Note: Other keyboard layouts are used on computers and typewriters in other countries (e.g. AZERTY, QUERTZ).
Well, back in the day, it was the only keyboard out there.
The seemingly random placement of the keys were, well actually random.
They did this in order to make sure that you couldn't type to fast, overloading the computer. Nowadays there isn't really a problem with that anymore, but so many people were already used to the qwerty keyboard that it sorta stuck.
Just think about it. On my baby brother's toy abcdefg laptop, I can't type nearly as fast as with a qwerty keyboard. weird but true.
hope this helped!
Because it is the simplest...
It was originally in order, A, then B, then C, (very old typewriters, perhaps the first) but since the mechanism back then wasn't as fast, the creator of the typewriter mixed up all the keys, making the 'QWERTY' keyboard as we know today. This was to slow people down, making them 'hunt' for the letters, giving the old typewriter time to process the letters onto the page.
Because Q,W,E,R,T, and Y are the first six letters on the keyboard.

An input device. In fact it is the ONLY way to input data into a computer. However, the most common input device is the computer's hard-drives or mass-storage devices (which are also output devices), followed by the mouse and keyboard.
