Suppose that a ship is accelerating through space in such a way that the passengers are experiencing a constant force (resulting from the thrust of the ship) equivalent to the total weight of the ship and passengers on Earth. From the point of view of observers on Earth, how does the ship accelerate?

A) At first, it has a nearly constant acceleration of 9.8 m/s2. But as it approaches the speed of light, its acceleration gradually slows in such a way that it never stops accelerating, but it never reaches the speed of light either. B) It has a constant acceleration of 9.8 m/s2, therefore increasing its speed by 9.8 m/s with each passing second. C) At first, it has a large acceleration, much larger than 9.8 m/s2. But when it reaches the speed of light it stops accelerating. D) It has a constant acceleration of 9.8 m/s2 until it reaches a speed of half the speed of light. Then its acceleration suddenly slows so that it can't go much faster.
