a Coin Toss
No. Each flip of each coin is an independent event. The flip of the quarter has no effect on the flip of the penny and vice versa. Also, the previous flip of either coin has no effect on the next flip.
There are two sides to the coin, so the probability of getting heads or tails on one flip of the coin is 1/2 or 50%.
The probability of getting a heads on the first flip is 1/2. Similarly, the probability on each subsequent flip is 1/2, since they are independent events. The probability of several independent events happening together is the product of their individual probabilities.
It is 0.5
If two events are disjoint, they cannot occur at the same time. For example, if you flip a coin, you cannot get heads AND tails. Since A and B are disjoint, P(A and B) = 0 If A and B were independent, then P(A and B) = 0.4*0.5=0.2. For example, the chances you throw a dice and it lands on 1 AND the chances you flip a coin and it land on heads. These events are independent...the outcome of one event does not affect the outcome of the other.
The definition of mutually exclusive events is that the events can't occur at the same time. For example, you can't flip a coin and get a head and a tail; they are mutually exclusive events.

Yes, they cannot happen at the same time. If you flip a coin heads and tails can not come up at the same time.

They do not flip a coin it depends if you are home or away. Away gets ball first.

The probability of a flipped coin landing heads or tails will always be 50% either way, no matter how many times you flip it.
