Which outcome would immediately occur upon collapsing the wave function of one entangled photon to have horizontal polarization?

💡 Explanation

When one photon in an entangled pair is measured resulting in collapse of its wave function to show horizontal polarization, their correlated quantum state instantly forces the other photon into vertical polarization because entanglement maintains opposite polarization states. Therefore, definite vertical polarization arises rather than depolarization, randomized polarization, or emission of extra high-frequency photons which invoke different quantum processes.
