Consider a radioactive nucleus $A$ which decays to a stable nucleus $C$ through the following sequence: $A \to B \to C$. Here $B$ is an intermediate nucleus which is also radioactive. Considering that there are $N_0$ atoms of $A$ initially,plot the graph showing the variation of the number of atoms of $A$ and $B$ versus time.

$A$ common example of alpha decay is ${ }_{92}^{238} U \longrightarrow{ }_{90}^{234} Th +{ }_{2}^{4} He + Q$. (Given: ${ }_{92}^{238} U = 238.05060 \, u$,${ }_{90}^{234} Th = 234.04360 \, u$,${ }_{2}^{4} He = 4.00260 \, u$,and $1 \, u = 931.5 \, MeV/c^2$). The energy released $(Q)$ during the alpha decay of ${ }_{92}^{238} U$ is $...... \, MeV$.

How many energy rays of $\alpha$-particles are emitted from $_{83}^{214}Bi$?

In the uranium radioactive series,the initial nucleus is $_{92}U^{238}$ and the final nucleus is $_{82}Pb^{206}$. When the uranium nucleus decays to lead,the number of $\alpha$-particles emitted is $x$ and the number of $\beta$-particles emitted is $y$. Find $x$ and $y$.
