The root mean square velocity of an ideal gas in a closed container of fixed volume is increased from $5 \times 10^4 \ cm \ s^{-1}$ to $10 \times 10^4 \ cm \ s^{-1}$. Which of the following statements correctly explains how the change is accomplished?

  • A
    By heating the gas,the temperature is doubled
  • B
    By heating the gas,the pressure is quadrupled (i.e.,made four times)
  • C
    By heating the gas,the temperature is quadrupled
  • D
    By heating the gas,the pressure is doubled
