Correct answer: D

  1. Let Pn=∏k=1n(21/2−212k+1).P_n=\prod_{k=1}^{n}\left(2^{1/2}-2^{\frac{1}{2k+1}}\right).Pn​=∏k=1n​(21/2−22k+11​). We need to find lim⁡n→∞Pn.\lim_{n\to\infty} P_n.limn→∞​Pn​.

  2. Observe the behavior of each factor. For every k≥1k\ge 1k≥1, 12k+1<12.\frac{1}{2k+1}<\frac12.2k+11​<21​. Since the function 2x2^x2x is increasing, 212k+1<21/2=2.2^{\frac{1}{2k+1}}<2^{1/2}=\sqrt{2}.22k+11​<21/2=2​. Hence each factor is positive: 0<2−212k+1.0<\sqrt{2}-2^{\frac{1}{2k+1}}.0<2​−22k+11​.

Also, 2−212k+1<2−1<1,\sqrt{2}-2^{\frac{1}{2k+1}}<\sqrt{2}-1<1,2​−22k+11​<2​−1<1, because 212k+1>12^{\frac{1}{2k+1}}>122k+11​>1. So every factor lies in (0,1)(0,1)(0,1).

  1. In particular, the very first factor is 2−21/3.\sqrt{2}-2^{1/3}.2​−21/3. Numerically, 2≈1.414,21/3≈1.260,\sqrt{2}\approx 1.414,\qquad 2^{1/3}\approx 1.260,2​≈1.414,21/3≈1.260, so 0<2−21/3≈0.154<1.0<\sqrt{2}-2^{1/3}\approx 0.154<1.0<2​−21/3≈0.154<1.

Thus, 0<Pn≤(2−21/3)n?0<P_n\le \left(\sqrt{2}-2^{1/3}\right)^n?0<Pn​≤(2​−21/3)n? This inequality is not directly valid because factors are not all equal, so instead we use a simpler argument: Since all factors are positive and each is strictly less than 111, the sequence PnP_nPn​ is decreasing and bounded below by 000.

  1. Now examine the factors for large kkk. As k→∞k\to\inftyk→∞, 212k+1→20=1.2^{\frac{1}{2k+1}}\to 2^0=1.22k+11​→20=1. Therefore, 2−212k+1→2−1.\sqrt{2}-2^{\frac{1}{2k+1}}\to \sqrt{2}-1.2​−22k+11​→2​−1. And 0<2−1<1.0<\sqrt{2}-1<1.0<2​−1<1.

So for sufficiently large kkk, each factor is less than some constant rrr with 2−1<r<1.\sqrt{2}-1<r<1.2​−1<r<1. For example, choose any such rrr; then for all large kkk, 2−212k+1<r.\sqrt{2}-2^{\frac{1}{2k+1}}<r.2​−22k+11​<r. Hence the tail of the product is bounded by a geometric-type product: Pn≤C r n−NP_n\le C\, r^{\,n-N}Pn​≤Crn−N for some constant C>0C>0C>0 and some fixed NNN. Since 0<r<10<r<10<r<1, rn−N→0.r^{n-N}\to 0.rn−N→0. Therefore, Pn→0.P_n\to 0.Pn​→0.

  1. Hence, lim⁡n→∞∏k=1n(21/2−212k+1)=0.\boxed{\lim_{n\to\infty}\prod_{k=1}^{n}\left(2^{1/2}-2^{\frac{1}{2k+1}}\right)=0.}n→∞lim​k=1∏n​(21/2−22k+11​)=0.​

  2. Checking options:

  • A: 2\sqrt22​ — incorrect
  • B: 111 — incorrect
  • C: 12\frac1{\sqrt2}2​1​ — incorrect
  • D: 000 — correct
