Just great! The answer can be ANYTHING, depending on how large the
UNKNOWN

No way!! c=c+v according to AE, remember? YOU have just ADDED to
"c"

Supporters of the physics (Relativity) hierachy use (-1)x(-1)=(+1)
whenever it suits there position, and do a Gisse ie scream about people
not knowing simple math/algebra UNTIL a situation occurs when the
square root of a negative number is required to fit the theories, and
magically the "i" appears, where -1 x -1 NOT +1
...which is SR "logic" in a nutshell.

What? I can't hear a supersonic aircraft approach, but I can hear it
leave.

Think:
Does a line shrink to zero, and then "beyond" ie be <0 ?
Does pressure reduce to zero, and beyond ?
Or force (as above)
Or temperature ?
Answer:
If the result is "less than zero", then the ZERO was in the WRONG
PLACE!
(human error)
eg If a temperature is found -400deg centigrade, then degrees Kelvin
need to be changed!
