What is the limit of $\frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}\sum_{k=1}^n\frac{1}{\sqrt{2k-1}+\sqrt{2k+1}}$? [duplicate]
$$\lim_{n\to \infty} \frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{1}+\sqrt{3}}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{5}}+\cdots+\frac{1}{\sqrt{2n-1}+\sqrt{2n+1}}\right)=? $$
I tried with the squeeze theorem, though I got the upper bound, but I couldn't find the lower bound. I also tried to solve it with the order limit theorem, but without any success. I guessed the result should be $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$. How can I do this?
There is a telescopic sum in disguise. Since: $$\frac{1}{\sqrt{2k+1}+\sqrt{2k-1}}=\frac{1}{2}\left(\sqrt{2k+1}-\sqrt{2k-1}\right)\tag{1}$$ by summing $(1)$ for $k$ that goes from $1$ to $n$ we have: $$ \sum_{k=1}^{n}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2k+1}+\sqrt{2k-1}} = \frac{1}{2}\left(\sqrt{2n+1}-\sqrt{1}\right)\tag{2}$$ hence by multiplying both sides by $\frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}$ and taking the limit as $n\to +\infty$ we clearly have: $$ \lim_{n\to +\infty}\frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}\sum_{k=1}^{n}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2k+1}+\sqrt{2k-1}}=\color{red}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}.\tag{3}$$
Hint 1:
$\frac{1}{\sqrt1+\sqrt3}=\frac{\sqrt3-\sqrt1}{2}$
$\frac{1}{\sqrt3+\sqrt5}=\frac{\sqrt5-\sqrt3}{2}$
and so on, so you are left with $\frac{\sqrt{2n+1}-1}{2}$ inside the brackets,
hope you can do it from here now.
Hint 2: (see only if you need it)
After multiplying by $\frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}$ it becomes $\frac{\sqrt{2+\frac{1}{n}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}}{2}. $ Now what is $\frac 1n$ and $\frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}$ if $n \to{+ \infty}$?
