**The Maxwell-Boltzmann Distribution of Speeds**

The Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution of speeds is given by the equation:

\[ 
f(v) = 4\pi \left( \frac{m}{2\pi k T} \right)^{\frac{3}{2}} v^2 e^{-\frac{mv^2}{2kT}} 
\]

**Problems:**

a) Calculate the fraction of CO\(_2\) molecules at 300K with speeds between 100 and 105 m/s.

b) Repeat for speeds between 600 and 605 m/s.

c) Repeat both a) and b) at a temperature of T = 1000K.
