Photon and electron are given same energy $({10^{ - 20}}J)$. Wavelength associated with photon and electron are ${\lambda _{Ph}}$ and ${\lambda _{el}}$ then correct statement will be

  • A

    ${\lambda _{Ph}} > {\lambda _{el}}$

  • B

    ${\lambda _{Ph}} < {\lambda _{el}}$

  • C

    ${\lambda _{Ph}} = {\lambda _{el}}$

  • D

    $\frac{{{\lambda _{el}}}}{{{\lambda _{Ph}}}} = C$
