Homework Statement


This is more of a math question - I just want to know how I can find the value of t when v=0.

0=5(t3/2)-(27/2)(t^1/2)+9(t^-1/2)

The Attempt at a Solution



I do not know how to solve this. Please show steps. Thanks.
 
Hint: What happens if you multiply through by [tex]\sqrt{t}[/tex] ?
