suppose you put 100 pennies in cup , shake the cup , and then toss the pennies onto floor (A)how many different head-tail arrangement(microstate) are possible for the 100 pennies ? what is the probability of finding exactly (B)50 heads (C)48tails

is it possible to these type of question in physics and also sole itt

no of different arrangements is 101 if you consider all pennies to be the same..

(i dont know what you mean by microstate!)

probability of 50 heads is

100C50(1/2)100

probability of 48 tails is

100C48(1/2)100
