    To solve this problem, we make use of the formula:

    λ = h/mv

    where:

    λ = wavelength of electron

    m = mass of electron = 9.11e-31 kg

    v = speed of electron = 1.34*10^5 m/s

    h = constant

    Hence,

    λ = (6.626x10^-34 J-s) / [ (9.11e-31 kg) (1.34 x 10^5 m/s) ]

    λ = 5.43x10^-9 m or 5.43 nm
