Will this lens work with my D40 camera body? null

Yes. https://www.nikonusa.com/Images/Learn-Explore/Photography-Techniques/2011/Which-Nikkor-is-Right-for-You/Media/NIKKOR-lens-compatibility-chart.pdf

No, the AF-S NIKKOR 200-500mm f/5.6E ED VR Lens is not compatible with the D40. "E" type NIKKOR lenses like this one feature an electromagnetic diaphragm mechanism in the lens barrel that provides highly accurate electronic diaphragm or aperture blade control when using auto exposure during continuous shooting. The Nikon D2-series, D1-series, D200, D100, D90, D80, D70-series, D60, D50, D40-series and D3000 DSLRs will not communicate aperture information electronically and cannot be used.
