A Klingon war vessel, stationary in space (hidden by a stolen
Cloaking Device), sees the Enterprise approaching at 0.70c. It
fires a projectile toward the Enterprise with velocity X as
measured by the Klingons. “Captain,” Mr. Spock reports on the
bridge of the Enterprise, “there is a projectile coming directly
toward us with a speed of 0.88c, as measured by our instruments.
I’m glad I took Physics NYC when I was at the Academy.” What is
X?
