Why This Question Is Tricky
Common Mistakes
The problem tests the application of the Leibniz rule and the evaluation of limits using the Squeeze Theorem where L'Hopital's rule fails.
Students often incorrectly conclude the limit does not exist because the derivative oscillates, missing that integration by parts followed by the Squeeze Theorem reveals the integral converges to 0.
The secondary trap is assuming asymptotic independence () without evaluating the limit.
