    p = h / λ

    m*v = h / λ

    v = h / λ*m

    v = (6.63e-34) / ( (225e-9)*(9.11e-31) ) = 3,234.5408 m/s

    wavelength=h/mv

    Find mass of an electron (9.1 times 10^-31 kg) and convert wavelength to meters. H=(6.626 X 10^-34)

    V=h/(m X wavelength)

    X=multiply lol

    lemme know if u get it right.
