$A$ 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).

$A$ nucleus of $_{84}^{210}Po$ originally at rest emits an $\alpha$ particle with speed $v$. What will be the recoil speed of the daughter nucleus?

In a radioactive decay chain,the initial nucleus is ${}_{90}^{232}Th$. At the end,$6$ $\alpha$-particles and $4$ $\beta$-particles are emitted. If the final nucleus is ${}_{Z}^{A}X$,then $A$ and $Z$ are given by:

$A$ nucleus with mass number $220$ is initially at rest. It emits an $\alpha$-particle. If the $Q$-value of the reaction is $5.5 \, MeV$,then the kinetic energy of the $\alpha$-particle will be .......... $MeV$.
