Exercise on the photodisintegration of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays #5

About the second item in this exercise, I don't believe it's analytically possible to obtain a Lorentz factor that is independent of the nucleus's mass, due to the binding energy having a more complicated dependence on A. Is there any assumption we should make in this question to get the expected answer? Thank you.

thanks! I changed Show it is independent with Show it is weakly dependent
