Hey
Well I asked my teacher this Question and i got a confused look, so read carefully.

We all know that the speed of light is constant to the frame of reference, According to relativity.
Therefore If i took 2 partical accelerators and placed one inside the other, and accelerated the inner accelerator to just Below C and then Accelerated a partical to just below C then therefore wouldn't it be going faster than C, in reference to the first frame of reference(outside both accelerators?
