wats source it might be a phy q from cambridge univ , involving quantum thry
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

i think wat he means might refer to quantum thry were we need to consider case of bot penny and head together appearing in coin
