Limit and integral with trigonometric function

$begingroup$


Calculate $$lim_{n rightarrow infty} int_{2npi}^{2(n+1)pi} xln(x)cos xmathrm{d}x.$$



Firstly, I tried to solve it by parts, but I think this is not a good option. Then, I tried to use the average theorem, but $cos x$ isn't positive for the whole interval and the other options don't help me too much, I guess. Please help me!

You need to integrate by parts twice. $int_{2npi}^{(2n+1)pi} xln(x)cosxdx=xln(x)sinxbig]_{2npi}^{(2n+1)pi}-int_{2npi}^{(2n+1)pi}(1+ln(x))sinxdx$. Since $sin(npi)=0$, the expression is $-int_{2npi}^{(2n+1)pi}(1+ln(x))sinxdx=cosx(1+ln(x))big]_{2npi}^{(2n+1)pi}+int_{2npi}^{(2n+1)pi}frac{cosx}{x}dx$.

The last integral $to 0$ as $nto infty$, so the original integral ends up as $-(2+ln(2npi)+ln((2n+1)pi)to -infty$.



Note this is not too surprising since the term $xln(x)$ is larger in the second half of the integration interval, where the $cosx$ is negative.
