A spaceship at rest in a certain reference frame S is given a speed increment of 0.50c.
Question:
A spaceship at rest in a certain reference frame S is given a speed increment of 0.50c. Relative to its new rest frame, it is then given a further 0.50c increment. This process is continued until its speed with respect to its original frame S exceeds 0.999c.How many increments does this process require?
