For a certain hypothetical one-electron atom,the wavelength (in $\mathring{A}$) for the spectral lines for transition from $n = p$ to $n = 1$ is given by $\lambda = \frac{1500p^2}{p^2 - 1}$ (where $p > 1$). The ionization potential of this element must be ......$V$ (Take $hc = 12420 \text{ eV-} \mathring{A}$).
