Answer : 1. "(1/2)^11"
Explanation :

Answer: A) (1/2)^11 Explanation: Probability of occurrence of an event,  P(E) = Number of favorable outcomes/Numeber of possible outcomes = n(E)/n(S) ⇒ Probability of getting head in one coin = ½,  ⇒ Probability of not getting head in one coin = 1- ½ = ½,  Hence,  All the 11 tosses are independent of each other. ∴ Required probability of getting only 2 times heads =122×129=1211

Answer : 2. "1/2"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 1/2 Explanation: We know that: When one card is drawn from a pack of 52 cards The numbers of possible outcomes n(s) = 52 We know that there are 26 red cards in the pack of 52 cards⇒ The numbers of favorable outcomes n(E) = 26 Probability of occurrence of an event: P(E)=Number of favorable outcomes/Numeber of possible outcomes=n(E)/n(S) ∴ required probability = 26/52 = 1/2.

Answer : 3. "1/4"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 1/4 Explanation: Non collision can happen only when all the cars move in same direction. That is either all cars moving in clockwise direction or all cars moving in anti clockwise direction.P(all cars not colliding) = P(all cars moving in the same direction) = P(all cars moving in clockwise direction)  +  P(all cars moving in anticlockwise direction) = [p(A --> C) x p(C --> B) x p(B --> A)]  +  [p(A --> B) x p(B --> C) x p(C --> A)] = [1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2] + [1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2] = 1/8 + 1/8 = 1/4
