ans: 2

When a coin is tossed once, there are two outcomes. It can turn up a head or a tail.

When 10 coins are tossed simultaneously, the total number of outcomes = 210

Out of these, if the third coin has to turn up a head, then the number of possibilities for the third coin is only 1 as the outcome is fixed as head.
Therefore, the remaining 9 coins can turn up either a head or a tail = 2^9
