    \[\underset{n\to \infty }{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{1}{{{1}^{3}}+{{n}^{3}}}+\frac{4}{{{2}^{3}}+{{n}^{3}}}+....+\frac{1}{2n}\]is equal to           [RPET 1997]

    A)                 \[\frac{1}{3}{{\log }_{e}}3\]        

    B)                 \[\frac{1}{3}{{\log }_{e}}2\]

    C)                 \[\frac{1}{3}{{\log }_{e}}\frac{1}{3}\]     

    D)                 None of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

               Let \[S=\underset{n\to \infty }{\mathop{\lim }}\,\,\frac{1}{{{1}^{3}}+{{n}^{3}}}+\frac{4}{{{2}^{3}}+{{n}^{3}}}+...+\frac{1}{2n}\]                      \[\underset{x\to a}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\,\,\frac{1-\cos \,(a{{x}^{2}}+bx+c)}{{{(x-\alpha )}^{2}}}\,\]            \[\therefore \,\,\,S=\underset{n\to \infty }{\mathop{\lim }}\,\,\,\sum\limits_{r=1}^{n}{\,\,\frac{{{r}^{2}}}{{{r}^{3}}+{{n}^{3}}}}\]\[=\underset{n\to \infty }{\mathop{\lim }}\,\,\,\,\sum\limits_{r=1}^{n}{{}}\frac{{{r}^{2}}}{{{n}^{3}}\,\left( \frac{{{r}^{3}}}{{{n}^{3}}}+1 \right)}\]                    \[=\underset{n\to \infty }{\mathop{\lim }}\,\,\,\,\sum\limits_{r=1}^{n}{{}}\frac{1}{n}.\frac{{{\left( \frac{r}{n} \right)}^{2}}}{\left[ 1+\,{{\left( \frac{r}{n} \right)}^{3}} \right]}\]            Applying the formula, we get \[A=\int_{0}^{1}{{}}\frac{{{x}^{2}}}{1+{{x}^{3}}}dx\]                                         \[A=\int_{0}^{1}{{}}\frac{{{x}^{2}}}{1+{{x}^{3}}}dx=\frac{1}{3}\int_{0}^{1}{{}}\frac{3{{x}^{2}}}{1+{{x}^{3}}}dx\]\[=\frac{1}{3}[{{\log }_{e}}(1+{{x}^{3}})]_{0}^{1}=\frac{1}{3}{{\log }_{e}}2.\]
