Consider the third order nonlinear dynamic equation
$x^{ΔΔΔ}(t) + p(t)f(x) = g(t)$, (*)
on a time scale 𝕋 which is unbounded above. The function f ∈ C(𝓡,𝓡) is assumed to satisfy xf(x) > 0 for x ≠ 0 and be nondecreasing. We study the oscillatory behaviour of solutions of (*). As an application, we find that the nonlinear difference equation
$Δ³x(n) + n^{α} |x|^γ sgn(n) = (-1)ⁿn^c$,
where α ≥ -1, γ > 0, c > 3, is oscillatory.
