\mathrm{KE}=\frac{\mathrm{P}^{2}}{2 \mathrm{~m}}
\mathrm{P}=\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\lambda}
\mathrm{eV}_{1}=\frac{\left(\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\lambda}\right)^{2}}{2 \mathrm{~m}}
\mathrm{eV}=\frac{\left(\frac{\mathrm{h}}{1.5 \lambda}\right)^{2}}{2 \mathrm{~m}}
\frac{\mathrm{V}_{1}}{\mathrm{~V}_{2}}=(1.5)^{2}=\frac{9}{4}
