The sum of $24$ terms of the following series $\sqrt 2 + \sqrt 8 + \sqrt {18} + \sqrt {32} + .........$ is

A

$300$

B

$300\sqrt 2 $

C

$200\sqrt 2 $

D

None of these

Solution

(b) We have $\sqrt 2 + \sqrt 8 + \sqrt {18} + \sqrt {32} + ……$

$ = 1\sqrt 2 + 2\sqrt 2 + 3\sqrt 2 + 4\sqrt 2 + ……..$

= $\sqrt 2 [1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ……….{\rm{upto}}\;24\;{\rm{terms}}]$

$ = \sqrt 2 \times \frac{{24 \times 25}}{2} = 300\sqrt 2 $.
