$A$ container is divided into two equal halves by a diathermic partition. Two different ideal gases are filled in the left $(L)$ and right $(R)$ parts. The $rms$ speed of the molecules in the $L$ part is equal to the average speed of the molecules in the $R$ part. Find the ratio of the mass of a molecule in the $L$ part to the mass of a molecule in the $R$ part.

  • A
    $\sqrt{3/2}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{\pi/4}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{2/3}$
  • D
    $3\pi/8$
