$A$ nucleus of mass $218\, amu$ in a free state decays to emit an $\alpha$-particle. The kinetic energy of the emitted $\alpha$-particle is $6.7\, MeV$. The recoil energy (in $MeV$) of the daughter nucleus is:

Assertion: ${}^{90}Sr$ from the radioactive fallout of a nuclear bomb ends up in the bones of human beings through the milk consumed by them. It causes impairment of the production of red blood cells.
Reason: The energetic $\beta$-particles emitted in the decay of ${}^{90}Sr$ damage the bone marrow.

$A$ nuclear decay is possible if the mass of the parent nucleus exceeds the total mass of the decay particles. If $M(A, Z)$ denotes the mass of a single neutral atom of an element with mass number $A$ and atomic number $Z$,then the minimal condition that the $\beta^{-}$ decay $X_Z^A \rightarrow Y_{Z+1}^A + \beta^{-} + \bar{\nu}_e$ will occur is ($m_e$ denotes the mass of the $\beta^{-}$ particle and the neutrino mass $m_{\nu}$ can be neglected).
