Crystal diffraction experiments can be performed using $X-$rays,or electrons accelerated through an appropriate voltage. Which probe has greater energy? (For quantitative comparison,take the wavelength of the probe equal to $1\,\mathring{A}$,which is of the order of inter-atomic spacing in the lattice) $(m_{e}=9.11 \times 10^{-31}\,kg)$

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.
