Homework Statement
If the total relativistic velocity of small rocket is 0.75c after being launched from a larger rocket traveling at 0.60c, what is the velocity of the smaller rocket as observed from inside it?
Can someone put this in layman's for me please. I solved many relativistic velocity question with no problem then i get thrown stuff like this.
Homework Equations
V= (V1+V2) / {1+(V1V2)/ c^2}
The Attempt at a Solution
.75c -.60c = .15c
