going clockwise the zeros are at 0π,1π,2π etc
going counterclockwise the zeros are 0π,-1π,-2π etc.

Answer:

(B)
k{\pi} for any integer k.

Explanation:

The given function is:


y=sin(x)

We have to find the zeroes of the given function, thus we have

In clockwise direction, the zeroes of
y=sin(x) are
0{\pi},1{\pi},2{\pi},... and

In counterclockwise direction,
0{\pi},-1{\pi},-2{\pi},..., thus

in general, the zeroes of the given function is
k{\pi} for any integer k.

Thus, option B is correct.
