If a computer exists which is many millions of times more powerfull than the human brain, will it make it rather pointless for us to learn how to do things?

How do I prove this?

Do you think you can help me on my physics homework? I got stuck on number two and the problem reads: The period of a simple pendulum, defined as the time for one complete oscillation, is measured in time units and given by T equals two pi square root of l over g where l is the lenghth of the pendulum and g is the acceleration due to gravity, in units of lenght divided by time squared. Show that this equation is dimensionally consistent.

For those whom "know", please forgive this simpleton Question. Do we actually know for a fact via visual magnification that atoms and protons etc. are real? Or are they Quantum theory?. And following on from this, but not related, why is Q theory so trusted?.
To me it seems as irrelevent as UFO theories. Mathematical equations in QT are all guess'. Where is the proof that QT is fact? Proof is everything, and the fact that fields medal winners can't prove their equations outside QT; to me says they are wasting time and money on fantasy.
Surely physical facts must be proved physically to be fact! I realise QT is "widely" acknowledged to be fact, but until it is actual fact, why is it so relied upon?
All arguements welcome. P.s. For ten points you will need to answer all questions.

well we all know that the more the mass the more the gravity right?

and we all know that einsteins theory or relativity states that there is this thing called matterenergy and when objects mass's decrease, the energy increases. so then if that happens then that would mean that if an object has more mass, it has less energy. and it has to make up for that (because everything in nature tries to be equal) and so it makes up for that by pulling in the energy from other matter, which also makes the objects mass bigger thus increasing the gravity.

this works out cause everything in nature tries to equal out, like osmosis.

what do you think?

nd btw. legally you cannot steal this idea, so dont even try unless you want to face some jailtime or a lawsuit

Can someone please help me? "electric power"

16. What turns ratios would be required for transformers that change;

a) 20 000V to 500 000V (at the power station)

b) 500 000V to 11 000V (at a sub-station)

c) 11 000V to 240V (at a pole-type transformer)

this is what i have been trying to do, is it correct?

16a. 20 to 500
b. 500 to 11
c.
