Hello
Ive have a problem with this simple question and hope someone (probably a lot of you) can help.
An object is traveling in a straight line between point A and point B. It always only goes half the remaining distance and so it will always be moving forward towards B but would never reach it. It would in effect be slowing down. If however its speed is increased with every half length traveled so the speed at which it is actually traveling is constant then it would eventually reach the speed of light, its overall speed however wouldn't be and it still would never reach point B.
Can someone help me see what I am missing here please.
