Particle \(X\) has mass \(m\), and particle \(Y\) has mass \(4m\). Both particles move such that they have the exact same magnitude of linear momentum \(p_0\). What is the ratio \(\dfrac{\lambda_X}{\lambda_Y}\) of the de Broglie wavelength of particle \(X\) to the de Broglie wavelength of particle \(Y\)?
