$lim_{nto +infty} |(2npi+1/n) sin(2npi+1/n)|$, $nin mathbb N$
$begingroup$
$lim_{nto +infty} |(2npi+1/n) sin(2npi+1/n)|$, $nin mathbb N$. I tried L'Hospital which gives
$$ lim_{nto +infty}left| frac{sin(2npi+1/n)}{(2npi+1/n)^{-1}} right| = lim_{nto +infty}left| frac{cos(frac{2pi x^2+1}{x})(2pi x^2+1)^2}{x^2} right|.$$
Is the limit $+infty$? I am not sure because of the cosine term.

@babemcnuggets $|(2npi+1/n) sin(2npi+1/n)|$ is an indeterminate product $0 * infty$, so I change it to $frac{0}{0}$ and use L'Hospital.

@user398843 Thanks for the clarifications. Also, as I stated, note you should not try to use l'Hôpital's rule in that case. You might get the correct answer, but it's not guaranteed. Regarding your question title & text change, note that an easier way to state $n$ is a positive integer is that $n in mathbb{N}$, i.e., is a natural number.

Note that $sin$ has period $2pi$, so $sin(2npi+frac 1 n)=sin(frac 1 n)$. $lim (|2npi+frac 1 n)sin(frac 1 n)|=lim (|2npi+frac 1 n)(frac 1 n)|=2pi$. I have used the fact that $frac {sin, x } x to 1$ as $ x to 0$.

Can we really take the limit sign into the absolute value sign? If $a_n = (-1)^n$, then $lim_{nto infty} |(-1)^n| = 1$ but $|lim_{nto infty} (-1)^n|$ does not exist. I asked this because you use $lim_{xto 0} frac{sin x}{x}$.
