$A$ radioactive source is placed in a uniform electric field. If $\alpha, \beta$,and $\gamma$ particles are emitted,then $\alpha, \beta, \gamma$ particles correspond to which paths respectively?

Before the neutrino hypothesis,the beta decay process was thought to be the transition $n \to p + e^-$. If this were true,show that if the neutron was at rest,the proton and electron would emerge with fixed energies and calculate them. Experimentally,the electron energy was found to have a large range.

$\alpha$-decay of a parent nucleus $X$ results in a daughter nucleus $Y$. If $m_x, m_y$ and $m_a$ are the masses of the parent nucleus, the daughter nucleus and the $\alpha$-particle respectively, then the net kinetic energy gained in the process is:

In the given reaction $_Z{X^A} \to _{Z+1}{Y^A} \to _{Z-1}{K^{A-4}} \to _{Z-1}{K^{A-4}}$,radioactive radiations are emitted in the sequence:

Two radioactive substances $A$ and $B$ of mass numbers $200$ and $212$ respectively, show spontaneous $\alpha$-decay with the same $Q$ value of $1 \text{ MeV}$. The ratio of energies of $\alpha$-rays produced by $A$ and $B$ is . . . . . . .
