How to evaluate $\lim_{x\to 0} \frac{x^2\sin {\frac{1}{x}}}{\sin x}$
Find the value of $\lim_{x\to 0} \dfrac{x^2\sin {\dfrac{1}{x}}}{\sin x}$.
Below I am showing my attempt at the question:
$x^2\sin {\dfrac{1}{x}}\to 0$ as $x\to 0$ since $\sin {\dfrac{1}{x}}$ is bounded in a neighbourhood of $0$ and $x^2\to 0$ as $x\to 0$.
Hence , we have a $\dfrac{0}{0}$ form.
By L'Hospital's Rule ,$\lim_{x\to 0} \dfrac{x^2\sin {\dfrac{1}{x}}}{\sin x}$ reduces to $\dfrac{2x\sin {\dfrac{1}{x}}-\cos{\dfrac{1}{x}}}{\cos x}$ whose limit can't be computed at $x=0$ since $\lim _{x\to 0} \cos{\dfrac{1}{x}}$ does not exist.
How can I evaluate this correctly?
Will the answer be limit does not exist?
Do excuse me if I am unable to post a good question as this is my first question on MSE
Solution 1:
Just observe that $$ \left|x^2\sin {\dfrac{1}{x}}\right|\le x^2 $$ giving, as $x \to 0$, $$ \left|\dfrac{x^2\sin {\dfrac{1}{x}}}{\sin x}\right|\le \frac{x^2}{\left|\sin x\right|}=\left|\frac{x}{\sin x}\right|\times|x|\to 1\times0=0. $$
Solution 2:
Hint:
The required limit can be written as: $$\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\sin \frac{1}{x}}{\frac{1}{x}} \times \frac{x}{\sin x} = 0 \times 1 =0$$
