Suppose a spaceship heading directly away from the Earth at 0.75c can shoot a canister at 0.35c relative to the ship. Take the direction of motion towards Earth as positive.
Randomized Variables
V1 = 0.75c
V2 = 0.35c
Part (a) If the canister is shot directly at Earth, what is the ratio of its velocity as measured on Earth to the speed of light?
Part (b) What about if it is shot directly away from the Earth (again, relative to c)?

I got A right but i cant figure out what i did wrong for b. please help. 14. [2.5/5 Points] DETAILS PREVIOUS ANSWERS OSCOLPHYS2016 28.4.P.020. MY NOTES ASK YOUR TEACHER PRACTICE ANOTHER Suppose a spaceship heading straight towards the Earth at 0.6450 can shoot a canister at 0.420c relative to the ship.

The spaceship Enterprise 1 is moving directly away from earth at a velocity that an earth-based observer measures to be +0.69c. A sister ship, Enterprise 2, is ahead of Enterprise 1 and is also moving directly away from earth along the same line. The veolcity of Enterprise 2 relative to Enterprise 1 is +0.45c. What is the velocity of Enterprise 2, (in terms of c) as measured by the earth-based observer?
Two planets are on a collision course, heading directly towards each other at a relative speed of 0.26c. Randomized Variables v= 0.26c u= 0.775 c A spaceship sent from one planet approaches the second at 0.775c as seen by the second planet. What is the velocity of the ship relative to the first planet? Assume the a velocity directed away from the planet would be considered positive.
15 pts) A spaceship flying directly toward Earth at 0.7c launches a missle with a speed (measured m the spaceship) of 0.8c at an angle of 60 (measured from the spaceship and measured relative to the ship-Earth direction). What is the speed of the missle measured by people on Earth and what is the angle of the missle's trajectory relative to the ship-Earth direction as measured by people on Earth?
