Yes but if you multiply that by millions of on/off switches suddenly it becomes quite impressive. Just look at your computer. That's how they all work.
Assuming you have a database of 1 megabyte that would be eight million bits or individual switches that can be either on or off. The total number of states that can be potentially represented by a database that large would be calculated by 2 raised to the 7,999,000 power. That's a lot of distinct possibilities. "0" is off
"1" is on
this is binary and throught differing combo's on 0 and 1 the represent numbers and letters.
All forms of data within a computer are based on digital circuits. A digital circuit can have exactly two states, one of "on" or "off". They are not able to represent intermediate values, such as "half-on" or "three-quarters off"; this would be known as an analog circuit. Since there are only two possible states for any single datum (called a "bit"), computers can only understand series of these bits ("bytes", "kilobytes", etc).
If you want a computer manufactured in Canada while buying from the United States, the only way to do this is by purchasing the computer online. THat way it will be shipped out of Canada to your house.

1 and 0 are the only two binary digits. In different scenarios they can represent True and False, On and Off, Yes and No, Open and Closed or any such logical pairs.
Calculation is the only function of a computer!
True
True
Positive logic ON = 1, OFF = 0. Negative logic ON = 0, OFF = 1.
A computer has only 2 states because there is either power (1) or no power (0).
True, but not all computers contain the same two states. They range from Rhode Island and Delaware in programmable calculators to Texas and Alaska in large mainframes.
The only computer that will not get a virus, is one still in it's packing cases, not connected to anything, and placed inside a locked room.
Computers understand only 0s and 1s because they use a binary number system, which is based on two states: off (0) and on (1). This binary system aligns well with the electrical circuitry of computers, where transistors can easily represent these two states. While other number systems like decimal (base 10) can also represent values, binary is the simplest and most efficient for computer processing and data storage.
Of course they do. Population wise not really, because population doesn't decide the election. Only the electoral collage does. The blue states represent Decorates and the red states represent Republicans.
Only states have U.S. Senators.
A computer cannot explode. It could only explode if there was a bomb inside of it.
Because in simple systems, such as those used for the early development of Computer programming, any given circuit could only be in either an off or on position. Those were the only two states available which could be used to represent information.
The red stripes on the flag represent bravery, the white is purity, and the blue is loyalty. the stars each represent a state. BTW I'm only in elementary school and why didn't you just look up this question on Google?
