Convergence Test (NOT test questions)

Which statement is true about the series the summation from n equals 2 to infinity of the natural log of the quantity 1 over n ?


It converges to 0.

It converges to 1.

It converges to some unknown value.
I chose this It diverges.

I chose D because when I use the nth term test it gives me ln(1/∞)= ln(0) which doesn't exist therefore it diverges...? I am not sure if my answer is correct.


Which one of the following series is convergent?


the summation from n equals 1 to infinity of 1 over n raised the the one-third power

the summation from n equals 2 to infinity of 1 over the product of n and the natural log of n
I chose this the summation from n equals 1 to infinity of 1 over the quantity n to the fourth power plus 1

the summation from n equals 1 to infinity of n over the quantity n squared plus 1

I know the answer is C because of the p-series test but I wonder how to test choice B?


Which of the following series is not absolutely convergent?


the summation from n equals 1 to infinity of the quotient of the quantity negative 1 and 5 raised to the nth power
I chose this the summation from n equals 1 to infinity of the quotient of negative 1 raised to the n plus 1 power and n raised to the negative 7 halves power

the summation from n equals 1 to infinity of the quotient of negative 1 raised to the n plus 1 power and the quantity n to the 4th power

the summation from n equals 1 to infinity of the quotient of negative 1 raised to the n plus 1 power and n squared

I chose B but I am not sure if A could be the answer. Please help me and thank you in advance!
