OpenStudy (astrophysics):

Spaceships A and B are traveling in the same direction at 0.75c relative to the Earth. The separation between A and B remains constant at \[9 \times 10^8 m.\] As A passes a stationary observer on Earth, he fires a missile backward at B. The missiles speed is 0.90c as measured by A. Find the time and place where the missile hits B, as measured by the stationary Earth observer. |dw:1460048007045:dw|
