An electron,an $\alpha$-particle,and a proton have the same kinetic energy. Which of these particles has the shortest de Broglie wavelength?

Assertion $(A):$ $A$ particle of mass $M$ at rest decays into two particles of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$,having non-zero velocities. The ratio of their de-Broglie wavelengths is unity.
Reason $(R):$ Here,we cannot apply the conservation of linear momentum.
