    A container is divided into two equal parts $I$ and $II$ by a partition with a small hole of diameter $d$. The two partitions are filled with same ideal gas, but held at temperatures $T_{ I }=150 \,K$ and $T_{ II }=300 \,K$ by connecting to heat reservoirs. Let $\lambda_{1}$ and $\lambda_{1 I}$ be the mean free paths of the gas particles in the two parts, such that $d >> \lambda_{ I }$ and $d >> \lambda_{ II }$. Then, the $\lambda_{ I } / \lambda_{ II }$ is close to
