You are standing at the South Street Seaport admiring a beautiful sunset when you notice a cruise ship heading east at about 40 kilometers per hour and a person is riding a bike at about 20 kilometers per hour. The biker throws a ball with a velocity of 30 kilometers southeast. You wonder how fast the ball seems to go; well you would need to use physics to get the answer.
