Time Travel: Calculating Velocity for 10 Year Trip

[QUOTE="jbriggs444, post: 6871091, member: 422467"] If all of the velocities are measured from the same frame of reference, the velocity addition formula does not enter in. Velocity addition gets used when you need to add a velocity measured in one frame to a velocity that has been measured from another. If a guy on a moving rocket fires a bullet from a rifle, you need the velocity addition formula to find the resulting velocity of the bullet. If you just want to talk about a guy riding a rocket, you do not need the velocity addition formula. [/QUOTE]
