Answer

The cannonball has more momentum. The BB has the longer wavelength.

Work Step by Step

Momentum is p = mv, so the larger-mass cannonball has more momentum. The de Broglie wavelength is h/p, so the BB, with smaller momentum p, has the longer wavelength. (Both wavelengths are far too small be measured.)
