We consider the energy weighted sums (EWS) for isovector giant dipole resonances (IVGDR) in finite nuclei within Landau kinetic theory. The dependence of both IVGDR energy, $E_{IVGDR}$, and the EWS enhancement factor, $\kappa (A)$, on the mass number $A$ occurs because of the boundary condition on the moving nuclear surface. The values of $E_{IVGDR}A^{1/3}$ and $\kappa (A)$ increase with $A$. The obtained value of the enhancement factor is about 10% for light nuclei and reaches approximately 20% for heavy nuclei. A fit of the enhancement factor to the proper experimental data provides a value for the isovector Landau amplitude of $F'_1\simeq 1.1$.
