If the temperature of a gas is increased from $127^{\circ} C$ to $527^{\circ} C$, then the rms speed of the gas molecules

The $rms$ speeds of the molecules of Hydrogen,Oxygen,and Carbon dioxide at the same temperature are $V_{H}$,$V_{O}$,and $V_{C}$ respectively. Then:

At $T$ $K$ temperature,the average speed of $O_2$ will be $\left( \frac{7}{4} \right)$ of the $rms$ speed of $N_2$ at $47\,^oC$. Find the value of $T$.

At a given temperature,if $V_{rms}$ is the root mean square velocity of the molecules of a gas and $V_s$ is the velocity of sound in it,then these are related as $\left( \gamma = \frac{C_P}{C_v} \right)$:

The value closest to the thermal velocity of a Helium atom at room temperature $(300\,K)$ in $m/s$ is $[k_B = 1.4 \times 10^{-23}\,J/K; m_{He} = 7 \times 10^{-27}\,kg]$.
