Hello friend,
recently, we had posted a post on Speed Limit Violation, which comprised of a thought experiment. But soon, thanx to a friend, Mr.Vikram, we have understoodthe flaw in it. We thank him greatly for it. But this is a diff. experiment of the same type. We simply fail to understand the flaw in it. We do feel it is flawed, for the consequence of it. But due to our limited knowledge on entanglement states and Q.M. we simply fail to understand it, to pin point it. So, we know ask for your help in sorting it out.
Now, we begin with 2 quantum particles that are entangled such that their spins are in the opposite direction. Now, before any measurement, both the particles exist in a state of superpositioned spin. So, none of the particles "know" where the other might turn out to be spinning when measured. So, now, lets assume that the particles in 2 diff. corners of the universe. Now, we take, suppose particle A and measure it. Lets assume it turns out to be spinning to the right. Now what if I measure the other particle B, just a few seconds after measuring A? B should turn out to be spinning to the left. But how come the information of the collapse of the wavefunction of the particle A reached B so quickly and its probabilities? Doesn't that violate the speed limit? A second ago, B had no idea as to where A was spinning. But just a second later it knew that A was spinning to the right, even though it was in a diff. corner of the universe. And the probabilities of B turing out to be spinning to the left or rightwere altered in the favour of spinning toward left. This problem puzzles us greatly. And hence, we ask for your help in reaching to the heart of it. Please do forgive our ignorance, if we have overlooked a fact somewhere, for we know little of the matter and simply wish to knpw more by questioning it. We hope to hear from you the problem in the thought experiment soon.
Thank you
A.B.G.D.
