(N/A) The outcome of the next toss may or may not be a tail. This is because tossing a coin is a random experiment where the occurrence of a head or a tail are equally likely events. Each toss is an independent event,meaning the result of the previous tosses does not influence the outcome of the next toss. Therefore,the probability of getting a tail in the next toss remains $1/2$.
