  • A
    $\sqrt{2}$
  • B
    $2$
  • C

If the temperature of a gas is increased from $27^{\circ} C$ to $159^{\circ} C$,then the percentage increase in the $rms$ speed of the gas molecules is

$A$ vessel is partitioned into two equal halves by a fixed diathermic separator. Two different ideal gases are filled in the left $(L)$ and right $(R)$ halves. The $rms$ speed of the molecules in the $L$ part is equal to the mean speed of the molecules in the $R$ part. Then the ratio of the mass of a molecule in the $L$ part to that of a molecule in the $R$ part is
