A track and field athlete is running forward with a javelin at a
velocity of 4.2 m/s. If he throws the javelin at a velocity relative
to him of 10.3 m/s, what is the velocity of the javelin relative to the ground?

Please help

Explanation:

The relative velocity is the velocity of the athlete relative to the ground plus the velocity of the javelin relative to the athlete.

v = 4.2 m/s + 10.3 m/s

v = 14.5 m/s
