The r.m.s. speed of gas molecules is given by

If the temperature of gas molecules is raised from $127^{\circ} C$ to $527^{\circ} C$,the ratio of the r.m.s. speed of the molecules is respectively:

The root mean square speed of hydrogen molecules of an ideal hydrogen gas kept in a gas chamber at $0^{\circ}C$ is $3180 \ m/s$. The pressure on the hydrogen gas is ..... $atm$ (Density of hydrogen gas is $8.99 \times 10^{-2} \ kg/m^3$,$1 \ atm = 1.01 \times 10^5 \ N/m^2$).

Consider an ideal gas with the following distribution of speeds:
Speed $(m/s)$$\%$ of molecules

$(a)$ Calculate $v_{rms}$ and hence $T$. (Given mass of one molecule $m = 3.0 \times 10^{-26} \ kg$, Boltzmann constant $k_B = 1.38 \times 10^{-23} \ J/K$)
$(b)$ If all the molecules with speed $1000 \ m/s$ escape from the system, calculate the new $v_{rms}$ and hence the new $T$.

The temperature at which oxygen molecules will have the same r.m.s. speed as helium molecules at $57^{\circ} C$ is (molecular masses of oxygen and helium are $32$ and $4$ respectively.) (in $K$)
