A. consider tossing three coins, one after the other. How many different arrangements are possible? (answer 8 for 2^n) but the following I'm unsure about
B. We will call each of the arrangments above a
microstate. Arrange the microstates into groups
according to the number of heads. We will call these groupings a
macrostate.
For example:
HHH (3 heads)
HHT (2 heads)
How many macrostates are possible for three coin
tosses?
C. How many microstates correspond to the macrostate of two heads?
D. Suppose you were to toss three coins in a row. What is the probability that two coins land heads up? (percentage as decimal)

Part A Suppose you toss a coin and it lands flat on the table. There are two possible final states for the coin, it can land with heads up or tails up. Now consider tossing three coins, one after the other. How many different arrangements are possible? Hint: Four of the possible arrangements are shown below. H HT HTH THH Part B We...
