Where [answer] is just the final number or expression that solves the problem.

Problem: Let $S$ denote the value of the sum
\[\sum_{n = 1}^{9800} \frac{1}{\sqrt{n + \sqrt{n^2 - 1}}}\]
$S$ can be expressed as $p + q \sqrt{r}$, where $p, q,$ and $r$ are positive integers and $r$ is not divisible by the square of any prime. Determine $p + q + r$.
