What is the probability that a coin flipped four consecutive times will always land on heads?
The probability that a coin flipped four consecutive times will always land on heads is 1 in 16. Since the events are sequentially unrelated, take the probability of heads in 1 try, 0.5, and raise that to the power of 4... 1 in 24 = 1 in 16
If you toss a coin 48 times how many times is it likely to land tails up?
There are two answers to this question. If it can only land on heads or tails up, then there is a 50% chance ( or half a chance) it will land heads up, but that's not necessarily true. But, if it can land on heads, tails, or sides, then there is a 16% chance it will land tails up.
You toss a coin 5 times and it lands on heads What will it land on the 6th time?
there is a 1/2 chance that it will land on heads and 1/2 chance it will land on tails. it dosent matter what the stats are
What is the probabilility that the spinner will land on six?
The probability that the spinner will land on six depends on how many numbers are on the spinner. If the spinner is only 1 through 6, then there is a 16.67% probability that the spinner will land on six with each spin.
If you flip a penny toss a 1-6 cube and flip a quarter how many outcomes are there?

Because of torque and the height of most tables how is buttered toast most likely to land?
buttered side down
What would happen if you strapped a buttered piece of toast to a cat will the cat keep revolving in mid air because it wants to land on its feet and the toast wants to land butter side down?
The cat will land on its feet. Logically speaking, the toast is already anchored to the cat, and so it has no need or desire to land anyplace. It is a blessing that this keeps the cat from eternal mid-air revolutions no matter what side of the toast is facing the cat. If the buttered side is cat-side, then the toast's experience is that it has already fallen and has landed properly. Many of the laws of physics have this beautiful kind of symmetry. The "flip-side" is that if this symmetry were not present in the laws of buttered-toast physics, then we would have an infinite source of energy in the form of revolving cats. JonnyD Here:the cat and toast would spin creating a vaccuum in space sucking everything up and putting the earth in a void in space crating a black hole which would then take us off the map of the universe and all the other planets would laugh at us because they already knew what would happen.
How can you defy the laws of gravity?
To defy the laws of gravity, you would need to manipulate the forces of nature, which is currently not possible with our current understanding of physics. Gravity is a fundamental force that governs the behavior of objects in the universe, and overcoming it would require advancements in technology far beyond our current capabilities.
What side does buttered toast fall on?
There is a 50 percent chance that it will land on either side, so just hope that it doesn't land on the buttered side! There is, hwever, an "observation bias." This means that we observe the more important outcome (topping side down so that it dirties th rug or floor and picks up a load of pet hair) to be more important and remember it more vividly. As a consequence, we remember these outcomes as being the most frequent outcomes when we cast our minds back over all the dropped toast incidents in our lives and conclude tat the toast always lands topping side down. This is the same effect as bingo players experience when they remember that they always win when they bring their lucky charm.
If a cat always lands on its feet and a piece of toast always lands butter side down What happens if you tie a piece of toast butter side UP to the back of a cat?
Then the cat would be paralized and it would go into a massive depression foaming up in the mouth and having massive orgasims, that is what will happen there will be no butter left PS what is an "orgasim?" or being "paralized?" No way dude. If you buttered the cat's feet it would still land on its feet, but if you butter some other part of the cat, things get more complicated. let us assume the cat is a rectangular prism, and can land on either its head, its butt, its back, its feet, or one of its two sides. (6 total possibilities) Since butter and cats' feet have equal probability power, (100% in both cases) When you combine them both into one object the probability is split. One hypothesis advanced by the scientific community is that the cat won't land at all. This hypothesis works out in theory, but in practice almost never happens. Today's theories have no place in the realm of extra-probability. (probabilities over 100%. This is a field where you need more than an infinite amount of trials to come to a conclusion.) Do note that not only will the cat not land at all in an extra-probability dimension, but that the cat would not land at all also in a frictionless vacuum, with the effects of gravity negated. This simulates an extra-probabilistic environment, and so would result in the same result. Another hypothesis, more accurate in normal-probabilistic practice, is that the cat will land in-between the butter and his feet. If experimented many times, there turns out to be an approximately normal distribution of landing results in-between the feet and the butter. This means that most often the cat will land exactly between the butter and his feet, but also will sometimes land other places, including on the butter and on his feet.
Does toast land butter side down?
mine fall sunny side uo mostly! (Im lucky I guess..) It doesn't, of course. There is some evidence that the act of buttering the toast creates a concave shape that actually tends to work the reverse, if the fall is long enough.
How a rocket can move through outer space where there is no matter for it to push on?
A rocket moves through space by expelling gas or propellant at high speeds in the opposite direction of the desired motion. This action follows Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. By expelling gas with great force, the rocket generates thrust that propels it forward in a vacuum.
How many measurements would be needed in an experiment in which you wanted to determine if a price of toast will land buttered?
It depends on the confidence level you want to achieve. Basically, the more measurements you make, the closer the measured percentage should be to the actual probability. But you'll never be absolutely sure.
What does this quote mean-bread'll take butter on either side?
This quote means that either option presented is satisfying or acceptable, just like butter on both sides of a slice of bread. It suggests that sometimes there are multiple good choices available.
If you glue a peanut butter sandwich to a cat's back and throw it out a window which way will it land?
well, cats always land on their feet, so waht do you think
