Quantum Mechanics Q: Suppose we have a qubit in the state (thi) = a|0> + (sqrt(1-a^2) |1>, where a E [-1,1]. If we first perform a standard basis measurement on this qubit and then perform a |u>, |uperp> basis measurement where |u> = b|0> + (sqrt(1-b^2)) or b E [-1,1]. What is the probability of the second outcome is "u". Express answer in terms of a and b. ----------- I think i have the first two 1. A^2 2. 1-A^2 Not sure the rest or the final answer.
