-<p align="center">Quantum mechanics attempts to simplify the mathematics of calculating the energy of particles that have a wave-particle duality (like electrons). This is accomplished by dividing the energy of the particle in to the following components: Translational energy, rotational energy, and vibrational energy. This simplification of the wave-particle duality is known as the Born-Oppenheimer approximation. The Born-Oppenheimer approximation is one of the basic concepts underlying the description of the quantum states of molecules and atoms. We apply this approximation to the quantum states of qubits to obtain an estimate of the electron's velocity in real life using the quantum computer's qubits as a representational model.</p>
