Ans:
L = \lim_{n\rightarrow \infty }\sum_{r=1}^{n}(\frac{1}{r^{2}})
\frac{1}{r^{3}}<\frac{1}{r^{2}}<1
\sum \frac{1}{r^{3}}<\sum \frac{1}{r^{2}}<\sum 1
\lim_{n\rightarrow \infty }\sum_{r=1}^{n}1 = \infty
\lim_{n\rightarrow \infty }\sum_{r=1}^{n}(\frac{1}{r^{3}})
This is a divergent series, so it will also tend to infinity.
Acording to sandwich theorm, L will also approaches to infinity.
