3. Toss 3 coins together 50 times. Record the appearance of heads and tails on each coin separately , Find the probability of
( i )Getting two head
( ii ) Getting no head
( iii ) Getting only one head
Answers
three coins are tossed simultaneously at random, find the probability of:
(i) getting three heads,
(ii) getting two heads,
(iii) getting one head,
(iv) getting no head
Solution:
Total number of trials = 250.
Number of times three heads appeared = 70.
Number of times two heads appeared = 55.
Number of times one head appeared = 75.
Number of times no head appeared = 50.
In a random toss of 3 coins, let E1, E2, E3 and E4 be the events of getting three heads, two heads, one head and 0 head respectively. Then,
(i) getting three heads
P(getting three heads) = P(E1)
Number of times three heads appeared
= Total number of trials
= 70/250
= 0.28
(ii) getting two heads
P(getting two heads) = P(E2)
Number of times two heads appeared
= Total number of trials
= 55/250
= 0.22
(iii) getting one head
P(getting one head) = P(E3)
Number of times one head appeared
= Total number of trials
= 75/250
= 0.30
(iv) getting no head
P(getting no head) = P(E4)
Number of times on head appeared
= Total number of trials
= 50/250
= 0.20
Note:
In tossing 3 coins simultaneously, the only possible outcomes are E1, E2, E3, E4 and P(E1) + P(E2) + P(E3) + P(E4)
= (0.28 + 0.22 + 0.30 + 0.20)
= 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Ohm's Law is a formula used to calculate the relationship between voltage, current and resistance in an electrical circuit. To students of electronics, Ohm's Law (E = IR) is as fundamentally important as Einstein's Relativity equation (E = mc²) is to physicists. E = I x R
