2 In this question you must show detailed reasoning. The finite region \(R\) is enclosed by the curve with equation \(y = \frac { 8 } { \sqrt { 16 + x ^ { 2 } } }\), the \(x\)-axis and the lines \(x = 0\) and \(x = 4\). Region \(R\) is rotated through \(360 ^ { \circ }\) about the \(x\)-axis. Find the exact value of the volume generated. [4]
  1. Find \(\sum _ { r = 1 } ^ { n } \left( \frac { 1 } { r } - \frac { 1 } { r + 2 } \right)\).
  2. What does the sum in part (i) tend to as \(n \rightarrow \infty\) ? Justify your answer.
