Show that the total number of permutations of n different things takenn not more than r at a time, when each thing may be repated any number of times

Show that the total number of permutations of n different things takenn not more than r at a time, when each thing may be repated any number of times is `(n(n^(r)-1))/((n-1))`.

55. Equal and opposite charge is given to two parallel plates. Without any space between them, the electric field is \( 3 \times 10^{5} V / m \) and with space filled with dielectric, electric field intensity is \( 1.0 \times 10^{5} V / m \). The induced charge density on the surface of the dielectric is: (a) \( 3.44 \times 10^{-6} C / m ^{2} \) (b) \( 8.8 \times 10^{-6} C / m ^{2} \) (c) \( 6.93 \times 10^{-6} C / m ^{2} \) (d) \( 1.77 \times 10^{-6} C / m ^{2} \)

Given, total different things=n
the number of permutations of n things taken one at a time `=.^(n)P_(1)=hn`, now if we taken two at a time (repetition is allowed), then first place can be filled by n ways and second place can again be filled in n ways.
`therefore`The number of permutations of n things takenn two at a time
`=.^(n)P_(1)xx.^(n)P_(1)=nxxn=n^(2)`
Similarly, the number of permutations of n things taken three at a time`=n^(3)`
The number of permutations of n things taken r at a
time `=n^(r)`. hence, the total number of permutations
`=n+n^(2)+n^(3)+ . . .+n^(r)`
`=(n(n^(r)-1))/((n-1))` [sum of r terms of a GP]
