1. Homework Statement

So i have to solve this integral with dominate convergence theorem. How can i prove that the sequence f_{n}
it s monotone?

\lim_{n \rightarrow +infty} \int_{0}^{+infty} \frac{1 -sin(\frac{x}{n})}{\sqrt(x^2 +\frac{1}{2}}

For 0\leqslant x\leqslant\pi /2 then it boils down to showing that \sin (x/n) is monotone which is easy right?
 
sin(x/n) it s monotone just on some interval...I m sure that f_{n} it s not monotone jou can easily see that on wolframalpha, i m just guessing how to solve the integral with monotone convergence theorem.
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
