When you flip a coin, it goes up in the air and spins around like a top. Gravity pulls it back down, but while it's in the air, something special happens: rotation! Imagine the coin is like a spinning wheel, when you flip it, it rotates as it moves up and then comes back down. Sometimes it lands on heads, sometimes on tails, it’s all part of the fun!
Examples
- Watching your dog flip a coin for a treat, and it lands on tails every time.
- Your friend flips a coin when deciding whether to wear a hat or not.
