If the sum of first n terms of an A.P. is cn2, then sum of squares of these n terms is?

ans:n(4n2-1)c2/3

HOW?

### Answers : (1)

If a is 1st term and d is common difference, sum of n terms = (n/2) (2a + (n-1)d) = (2an-nd) + n2d

comparing this with cn2 we get : 2an-nd = 0  and  d = c    =>    a = c/2,  d = c

sum of squares of n terms = $\sum_{r=1}^{n}(a+(n-1)d)^{2}$

$=\sum_{r=1}^{n}\left( \frac{c}{2}+(n-1)c\right)^{2}$

$=\sum_{r=1}^{n}c^{2}\left( n^{2}-n+\frac{1}{4}\right)$

$=c^{2}\left( \sum_{r=1}^{n}n^{2}-\sum_{r=1}^{n}n+\sum_{r=1}^{n}\frac{1}{4}\right)$

$=c^{2}\left(\frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6}-\frac{n(n+1)}{2}+\frac{n}{4}\right)$

$=\frac{c^{2}n(4n^{2}-1)}{12}$

if 5 C n , 24 C n and 6 C n are in H.P. then n is equal to?

as it is observed from the question that maximum vakue of n can be 5 but on solving we get value of n is 0 there is no other value of n except 0 approve if useful

of course it is wrong if x,y,z arein hp then 1/x,1/y,1/z are in ap so on expanding the factorial we coclude that only possible value is n=0 approve if useful

Hello Student, Well do this by relative motion. a_rel=-20 v_rel=10 0=10t-10t^2 =>t(10-10t)=0 =>t=0,1sec Thanks & Regards Arun Kumar Btech, IIT Delhi Askiitians Faculty
