In the context of the double-slit experiment, quantum nonlocality refers to
A) the fact that the entire matter field or EM field instantaneously collapses to the single interaction point when the field interacts with the screen. B) our inability to precisely predict the point at which a spread-out matter field or EM field will interact with the screen. C) the fact that each interaction with the screen occurs over a broad area of the screen. D) the fact that the electron beam or light beam goes through both slits rather than only one. E) the fact that the particles of matter or radiation are instantaneously replaced by a spread-out matter field or EM field when the particles impact the screen.

A) The potential is lowest, but not zero, at the center of the sphere. B) The potential at the center of the sphere is zero. C) The potential at the center of the sphere is the same as the potential at the surface. D) The potential at the surface is higher than the potential at the center. E) The potential at the center is the same as the potential at infinity.
