Let $(f_n)$ be a sequence in $L^2(a,b)$, where $-\infty<a<b<+\infty$. If $$\lim_{n\to\infty}\int_a^b f_n(x)dx=0,$$ can we conclude that $$\lim_{n\to \infty}\int_a^b f_n(x)^2dx=0?$$
Thanks.

No (to the question in the post). Take $f_n=f$ for all $n$, where $0\ne f\in L_2$ and $\int_a^b f=0$.
Finding such an $f$ should not prove difficult.
