The $rms$ speed of a molecule of a diatomic gas is $v$. When the temperature is doubled,the molecule dissociates into two atoms. The new $rms$ speed of the atom is:

  • A
    $v$
  • B
    $\sqrt{2}v$
  • C
    $2v$
  • D
    $4v$

The molecules of a given mass of a gas have $r.m.s.$ velocity of $200 \,m s^{-1}$ at $27^o C$ and $1.0 \times 10^5 \,N m^{-2}$ pressure. When the temperature and pressure of the gas are respectively $127^o C$ and $0.05 \times 10^5 \,N m^{-2},$ the $r.m.s.$ velocity of its molecules in $m s^{-1}$ is

The $r.m.s.$ speed of the molecules of a gas at a pressure $10^5 \ Pa$ and temperature $0^\circ C$ is $0.5 \ km \ sec^{-1}.$ If the pressure is kept constant but temperature is raised to $819^\circ C,$ the velocity will become ........ $km \ sec^{-1}.$
