Answer

Over the interval (0,3), the angle y is equal to 0 at times $t = \frac{5}{6}, \frac{11}{6}, \frac{17}{6}$

Work Step by Step

If $y=0$, then $cos[\pi~(t-\frac{1}{3})] = 0$ Then: $\pi~(t-\frac{1}{3}) = \frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{3\pi}{2}, \frac{5\pi}{2},...$ $t-\frac{1}{3} = \frac{1}{2}, \frac{3}{2}, \frac{5}{2},...$ $t = \frac{5}{6}, \frac{11}{6}, \frac{17}{6},...$ Over the interval (0,3), the angle y is equal to 0 at times $t = \frac{5}{6}, \frac{11}{6}, \frac{17}{6}$
