The molecules of a given mass of gas have rms velocity of 200 ms-1 at \(27^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\) and 1.0 x 105 Nm-2 pressure. When the temperature and pressure of the gas are increased to, respectively, \(127^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\) and 0.05 X 105 Nm-2, rms velocity of its molecules in ms-1 will become:
1. 400/√3
2. 100√2/3
3. 100/3
4.100√2
