If the password is easy - simple rarcrack probably will find it, but if is strong (letters,numbers,symbols) ... no hope.

You have to connect to the folder where rarcrack is . e.g. if is in /Downloads folder and the file name is myfile.zip and the myfile.zip is in the /Documents folder

cd Downloads/rarcrack/
./rarcrack ~/Documents/myfile.zip --threads 2 --type zip

and be patience .. until it finishes.

Thanks
