Quantum Superposition: Schrödinger's Cat Explained! #shorts

Schrödinger's Cat is a thought experiment in quantum mechanics illustrating the concept of superposition. It posits a cat in a sealed box with a radioactive atom, a Geiger counter, and a vial of poison. If the atom decays, the poison is released, killing the cat. Quantum mechanics suggests that until observed, the atom is in a superposition of decayed and undecayed states. Consequently, the cat is simultaneously alive and dead until the box is opened and the cat's state is observed. This paradox highlights the peculiar nature of quantum superposition and measurement.
