Use the Fermi energy plus the neutron separation energy to estimate the depth of the potential well for Fe^56 (A=56, Z=26)

What I understand so far:

The depth of the well --> |Vo| = (Fermi energy) + (Neutron separation energy)

Where the neutron separation energy is the binding energy of the last neutron (Would this be the same as the B.E per nucleon usually use to find the plot of the binding fraction? )

Please detail every step you make.

and thank you! Thumbs up guaranteed!

The Lennard-Jones potential energy, U(x), is a function of “x” the separation distance between a pair of atoms in a molecule. It is frequently called the van der Walls potential between atoms for dipole-dipole interactions. The potential is U(x) = C12/ x12 - C6/x6,                                                                    [1] Where C12 = 1.51 x 10-134 J∙m12 C6 = 1.01 x 10-77 J∙m6.
