Why does a^(3/2)*(1/a)^(3/2) not return 1 in maple? Sorry for the basic question, I'm just not sure what I'm missing.

I'm supposed to use a CAS to integrate (4*v*(m/(2*Pi*k*T))^(3/2)*Pi*v^2)*exp(-m*v^2/(2*k*T)) for v from -infinity to infinity. I know the answer should be sqrt(8*k*t/(Pi*m)), but I can't seem to get Maple to evaluate the limit once it integrates the expression. Any help is greatly appreciated. Let me know if I need to provide more information, I'm a bit new to the forums :)
