For each natural number k, let $${C_k}$$ denote the circle with radius k centimetres and centre at the origin. On the circle $${C_k}$$, a-particle moves k centimetres in the counter-clockwise direction. After completing its motion on $${C_k}$$, the particle moves to $${C_{k + 1}}$$ in the radial direction. The motion of the patticle continues in the manner. The particle starts at (1, 0). If the particle crosses the positive direction of the x-axis for the first time on the circle $${C_n}$$ then n = ..............
