Answer:

3×10^7 m/s or 0.10c (e)

Explanation: If the actual value of the speed of light were to be put into consideration.

Given that the speed of light is c = 3.0×10^8m/s

The alien spaceship is approaching at the rate of 10% of the speed of light.

10% of 3.0×10^8m/s

10/100 × 3.0×10^8m/s

0.1 ×3.0×10^8m/s

3×10^7 m/s. Which is the same thing as 0.1 of c = 0.1×c
