Answer:
The correct option is;
C. Computers involve matter and energy
Explanation:
The development of computers have been made by advancement and changes in the material components from which a computer is made such as the following;
a) The core material for the 1st generation of computers was vacuum tubes required for their operation
b) The 2nd generation of computers had the vacuum tubes replaced with transistors
c) The 3rd generation of computers worked with integrated circuits
d) The 4th generation which is the present day generation of computers make use of the microprocessor which consists of several thousand integrated circuits located in one silicon chip
As such the development of computers involves discovering new methods of suitable and applicable material usage
The properties of these components are naturally studied by physicists and the the future generation of computers that represent a quantum leap is more likely based on improvement in a combination of material and energy usage which are the main core areas of the study of physics
The physicist is as observed, one of the most, important member of a computer design and manufacturing team.
