  • A \(\alpha\) - decay
  • B \(\beta\) - decay
  • C \(\gamma\)-decay
  • D Photon emission
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation:
\({ }_{62}^{150} X \rightarrow{ }_{63}^{150} Y+{ }_{b}^{a} K+\) energyalancing the nuclear equation, we have \(a=0, b=-1(63\)
\(-62\) ) so that
\(k={ }_{-1}^{0} e-\beta-\) decay
