Consider a particle whose position at time t is given byr(t)={t^(3)/3 +t^(2)/2, cos(t), e^(t)-t}. Find the accelerationvector of the particle at those time(s) where this particlestops.

Side note: I understand to take the derivatives to find thevelocity and acceleration vectors. I tried setting the individualcomponents of the velocity vector equal to zero and the only timethat worked was t=0 so that didn't seem right. I've also triedcalculating the speed from the velocity vector but it gets toocomplex and nearly impossible to solve for the times the speedequals zero. Please help!
