If a photon,an electron,and a uranium nucleus have the same de Broglie wavelength,which one will have the highest energy?

Electrons are accelerated through a potential difference $V$ and protons are accelerated through a potential difference $4V$. The de-Broglie wavelengths are $\lambda_e$ and $\lambda_p$ for electrons and protons respectively. The ratio of $\frac{\lambda_e}{\lambda_p}$ is given by: (given $m_e$ is the mass of the electron and $m_p$ is the mass of the proton).
