Question
Assertion : Radioactive nuclei emit ${\beta ^ - }$ particles.
Reason : Electrons exist inside the nucleus
✓
Answer
Radioactive nuclei emit $\beta - $ particles. This $\beta - $ particle comes from the splitting of neutron into $\beta - $ particle and proton.

A small disk is attached to the end of a light inextensible string, which passes through a hole in a frictionless horizontal tabletop. Initially the disk moves on a circle of radius $R$ with kinetic energy $K_0$. The string is then slowly pulled so that the disk finally rotates on a circle of radius $\frac{R}{\eta }$. What is the work $W$ done in pulling the string
