Q. Consider the following statements regarding Qubits:
1.A qubit is the fundamental unit of quantum information, capable of existing in a state of 0, 1, or both simultaneously.
2.The phenomenon of Superposition is what allows qubits to hold multiple states at once, unlike classical bits.
3.Because qubits use quantum mechanics, they are significantly slower than classical bits at performing simple arithmetic tasks.
Which of the statements given above is incorrect?

[A] 1 only

[B] 2 only

[C] 3 only

[D] None of the above

Answer: C
Notes:

Explanation:

  • Statement 1 and 2 are correct: These describe the core principles of quantum computing.
  • Statement 3 is incorrect: While quantum computers aren’t necessarily better for every task, their unique logic allows them to solve specific complex problems (like drug discovery or cryptography) exponentially faster, not slower.
