Schrodinger cat's experiment

Although Schrodinger cat's experiment is totally hypothetical, but it explains the superposition concept quite well. Many of us are fond of quantum physics, but it is not everyone's cup of tea. We can not understand it by comparing with physical world. It's all about mathematics and far more than that.

At the very start many people believed that, there is no such thing as quantum physics. But they were wrong.

In schrodinger cat's experiment, it is suppose a cat is put in a box with a radioactive element kept in a glass flask and a hammer is hang upon it. If the cat tries to come out of the locked box the hammer will break the glass flask and the cat will die due to radioactive element and if we try to open the box the hammer will still break the glass flask . In both the cases the cat will die. But the interesting thing is we can not predict whether the cat is alive or not in box. May be cat dies before we open the box or surely die when we open the box. So it is called that the cat is exist in the superposition,that the cat is alive and the cat is dead in the box before we open it. I think this is marvelous hypothetical concept to understand the concept of superposition.
