Speed of sound in a gas is

\begin{aligned} V&=\sqrt{\frac{r k T}{M}}\\ or, \quad V& \propto \sqrt{\frac{\gamma}{M}}\\ \frac{V_{N_2}}{V_{\text {He }}}&=\sqrt{\frac{r_{N_2}}{r_{\text {He }}} \times \frac{M_{14}}{M_{H_2}}} \\& =\sqrt{\frac{7 / 5}{5 / 3} \times \frac{4}{28}} \\ & =\frac{\sqrt{3}}{5} \end{aligned}
