At very high momentum (shortwavelength) the total energy will be dominated by the kinetic energy of the particle. Again, since KE at a given momentum is inversely proportional to mass then theelectron will have the greater total energy. ... A photon and electron has the same de Broglie wavefront.

electron because its speed is minimum than photon and since total energy is inversely proprtional to speed that's why energy of electron is maximum
