If you use the relativistic velocity-addition formula to add everyday velocities,you will get
A)nonsense.
B)a significantly better result than if you add them classically.
C)a result almost identical to the classical result.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The relativistic velocity-addition formula reduces to the classical formula at low velocities. Therefore, adding everyday velocities using the relativistic formula will result in a result almost identical to the classical result. The choice A is incorrect because the relativistic formula is a well-established equation in physics and does not produce nonsensical results. The choice B is incorrect because while the relativistic formula does give a more accurate result than the classical formula at high velocities, the difference is negligible for everyday velocities.
