$A$. Temperature of gas is made $4$ times and pressure $2$ times$P$. Speed becomes $2\sqrt{2}$ times
$B$. Only pressure is made $4$ times without change in temperature$Q$. Speed becomes $2$ times
$C$. Only temperature is changed to $4$ times$R$. Speed remains unchanged
$D$. Molecular mass of the gas is made $4$ times$S$. Speed becomes half
