I think it can, to collapse the wave duality function of an electron, a conscious observer must make a measurement, or observation. Nobody knows what the world looks like when nobody is looking, but who collapsed the wave function when we weren't here? That leads to another question, does God count as a conscious observer?
I do believe in a God, as I am a protestant, but I think this is an interesting topic that should not be ignored.
Note: If you ever hear about the "God particle" - it has nothing to do with God, but scientists hope that it will explain why things actually have mass. Hope that helps.
What else can I help you with?
Why you need quantum or modern physics while classical physics existed already?
Classical physics was based upon how the things we deal with every day move when we deal with them in everyday situations. As we started to discover new things (protons, electrons, redshift, etc) classical physics failed to completely explain what we observed. Modern physics explained time-and-space related quandries while quantum physics explained wave-and-particle dualities.
What is the quantum physics of a moose?
There is no quantum physics of a moose. Quantum physics is a type of theoretical physics, and its laws do not apply to physical objects
What is the significance of the Bell inequality in quantum mechanics and how does it challenge classical physics theories?
The Bell inequality in quantum mechanics is significant because it demonstrates that certain correlations between particles cannot be explained by classical physics theories. This challenges the idea that particles have predetermined properties and suggests that quantum mechanics operates differently from classical physics.
What is the difference between quantum physics and physics?
Nothing. Quantum is a branch of physics
What is quantum machanics?
Quantum mechanics is a branch of physics that describes the behavior of matter and energy on the smallest scales, such as atoms and subatomic particles. It deals with phenomena that are not explained by classical physics, such as wave-particle duality and quantum superposition. Quantum mechanics has led to technologies like semiconductors and quantum computing.
What is the difference between quantum mechanics and quantum physics?
Quantum Mechanics is a branch of physics describing the behavior of energy and matter at the atomic and subatomic scales. It explains it itself and Quantum Physics is the same deal. They're just two different ways in saying it.
How did Albert Einstein change quantum physics?
Einstein founded "Einsteinian physics", which replaced Newtonian physics, but which has been superseded by quantum physics. Einstein's colleagues asked some of the questions which led to a more bizarre, quantum model of physics. Look up Schrodinger's cat for the most famous example. Einstein thought this was mystical weirdness.
Examples of modern physics?
Quantum Physics, Astronomical Physics
Why plasma is not explained with quantum mechanics?
I am not aware of it "not being explained". I would guess that you can explain the relevant aspects with quantum mechanics.
What are the diff branches physics?
branches of physics are - Neclear physics Electromagnetism Quantum mechanics Interdisciplinary fields Quantum field theory
Is quantum mechanics same as quantum physics?
It most certainly is! It has to do with things that are very small. Atomic [or Nuclear] Physics is essentially the study of the quantum world.
What atomic observation gave us the first hint that all of Newton's law didn't apply in all cases and how did this rise to Quantum physics?
The photoelectric effect was the observation that gave the first hint that Newton's laws did not apply at the atomic level. This led to the development of quantum physics because it showed that light can behave both as a wave and a particle, which could not be explained by classical physics. Quantum physics emerged to provide a more accurate description of phenomena at the atomic and subatomic levels.
