Consider two electrons in a singlet state (total spin = 0).
(a) If a measurement of the spin of one of the electrons reveals it is in a state with sz = +ħ/2, what is the probability that a measurement of the z-component of the spin of the other electron yields +ħ/2?
(b) If a measurement of the spin of one of the electrons reveals it is in a state with sz = +ħ/2, what is the probability that a measurement of the x-component of the spin of the other electron yields sx = +ħ/2?
