The $A_{92}U^{238}$ nucleus decays to a $Pb^{214}_{82}$ nucleus. The number of $\alpha$ and $\beta^{-}$ particles emitted are:

In the given reaction $_Z{X^A} \to _{Z+1}{Y^A} \to _{Z-1}{K^{A-4}} \to _{Z-1}{K^{A-4}}$,radioactive radiations are emitted in the sequence:

Statement-$1$: $A$ nucleus having energy $E_{1}$ decays by $\beta^{-}$ emission to a daughter nucleus having energy $E_{2}$,but the $\beta^{-}$ rays are emitted with a continuous energy spectrum having an end-point energy $E_{1} - E_{2}$.
Statement-$2$: To conserve energy and momentum in $\beta$ decay,at least three particles must take part in the transformation.

List-$I$ shows different radioactive decay processes and List-$II$ provides possible emitted particles. Match each entry in List-$I$ with an appropriate entry from List-$II$, and choose the correct option.
