Detailed Solution

de-Broglie wavelength  lambda = frac{h}{{m{v_{rms}}}}, rms velocity of a gas particle at the given temperature (T) is given as
frac{1}{2}mv_{rms}^2 = frac{3}{2}kT Rightarrow {v_{rms}} = sqrt {frac{{3,kT}}{m}} Rightarrow m{v_{rms}} = sqrt {3,mk;T}
therefore lambda = frac{h}{{m{v_{rms}}}} = frac{h}{{sqrt {3,mkT} }}
Rightarrow frac{{{lambda _H}}}{{{lambda _{He}}}} = sqrt {frac{{{m_{He}}{T_{He}}}}{{{m_H}{T_H}}}} = sqrt {frac{{4,(273 + 127)}}{{2,(273 + 27)}}} = sqrt {frac{8}{3}}
