Suppose that the average kinetic energy (translational & rotational) of random molecular motion of helium \(\mathrm{(He})\) at temperature \(T_\mathrm{He}\) is equal to that of hydrogen \(\mathrm{(H_2})\) at temperature \(T_\mathrm{H_2}.\) Then;
1. \(T_\mathrm {H_{2}}=T_\mathrm{H e}\) 2. \(\dfrac{T_\mathrm{H_2}}{2}=\dfrac{T_\mathrm{He}}{4}\)
3. \(5 T_\mathrm{H_2}=3 T_\mathrm{He}\) 4. \(\dfrac{T_\mathrm{H_{2}}}{5}=\dfrac{T_\mathrm{{He }}}{3}\)
