Answer

834 pm

Work Step by Step

Recall that the de Broglie wavelength $\lambda=\frac{h}{mv}$ where $h$ is the Planck's constant, $m$ is the mass and $v$ is the velocity. Substituting values, we have $ \lambda=\frac{6.626\times10^{-34}\,J\cdot s}{(1.67356\times10^{-27}\,kg)(475\,m/s)}$ $=8.34\times10^{-10}\,m=834\,pm$
