 Solution

For a photon, the photon energy formula and the vacuum relation $\nu =c/\lambda$ give $E_{\gamma }=hc/\lambda$. For an Electron, the de Broglie wavelength gives the same momentum magnitude $p=h/\lambda$, but the nonrelativistic kinetic energy is $K_e=p^2/(2m_e)$. Using $h=6.62607015\times 10^{-34}\mathrm{J}\mathrm{s}$, $m_e=9.10938\times 10^{-31}\mathrm{kg}$ and $1\mathrm{eV}=1.602176634\times 10^{-19}\mathrm{J}$,Thus, to the precision of the wavelength,The electron answer is its kinetic energy, as required for the diffraction experiment; its relativistic energy would additionally include the approximately $511\mathrm{keV}$ rest energy. Since $K_e\ll m_e{c}^2$, the nonrelativistic approximation is well justified. Equal wavelengths imply equal momenta, not equal energies for particles with different energy–momentum relations.
