Answer

Correct option: B.
An antineutrino
b
$_0{n^1}{ = _1}{p^1}{ + _{ - 1}}{e^0} + \bar \nu $
Antineutrino is required for conservation of spin.

Consider two thermometers $T_1$ and $T_2$ of equal length, which can be used to measure temperature over the range $\theta_1$ to $\theta_2$. $T_1$ contains mercury as the thermometric liquid, while $T_2$ contains bromine. The volumes of the two liquids are the same at the temperature $\theta_1$. The volumetric coefficients of expansion of mercury and bromine are $18 \times 10^{-5} \,K ^{-1}$ and $108 \times 10^{-5} \,K ^{-1}$, respectively. The increase in length of each liquid is the same for the same increase in temperature. If the diameters of the capillary tubes of the two thermometers are $d_1$ and $d_2$, respectively. Then, the ratio of $d_1: d_2$ would be closest to
