In the nuclear decay given below:
\({ }_{\mathrm{Z}}^{\mathrm{A}} \mathrm{X} \rightarrow { }_{\mathrm{Z}+1}^{\mathrm{A}} \mathrm{Y}\rightarrow { }_{\mathrm{Z-1}}^{\mathrm{A-4}} \mathrm{B}\rightarrow { }_{\mathrm{Z-1}}^{\mathrm{A-4}} \mathrm{B}\) the particles emitted in the sequence are:

1.	\(\beta, \alpha, \gamma\)	2.	\( \gamma, \beta, \alpha\)
3.	\(\beta, \gamma,\alpha\)	4.	\(\alpha,\beta, \gamma\)

If \(M(A,~Z)\), \(M_p\)${}_{}$, and \(M_n\) denote the masses of the nucleus \(^{A}_{Z}X,\) proton, and neutron respectively in units of \(u\) \((1~u=931.5~\text{MeV/c}^2)\) and represent its binding energy \((BE)\) in \(\text{MeV}\). Then:

Two nuclei have their mass numbers in the ratio of \(1:3.\) The ratio of their nuclear densities would be:
1. \(1:3\)
2. \(3:1\)
3. \((3)^{1/3}:1\)
4. \(1:1\)

In the radioactive decay process, the negatively charged emitted β-particles are:

If the nuclear radius of \(^{27}\text{Al}\) is \(3.6\) Fermi, the approximate nuclear radius of \(^{64}\text{Cu}\) in Fermi is:
1. \(2.4\)
2. \(1.2\)
3. \(4.8\)
4. \(3.6\)

If the radius of \(_{13}^{27}\mathrm{Al}\) nucleus is taken to be \({R}_{\mathrm{Al}},\) then the radius of \(_{53}^{125}\mathrm{Te}\) nucleus is near:

For radioactive material, the half-life is \(10\) minutes. If initially, there are \(600\) number of nuclei, the time taken (in minutes) for the disintegration of \(450\) nuclei is :
1. \(20\)
2. \(10\)
3. \(30\)
4. \(15\)
