Respuesta :

The Answer is D cause of the people going back and forth.

Answer:

a lighthouse on a nearby island

Explanation:

The ships passengers are moving at the same velocity as the ship therefore according to their reference point the ship is not moving. The same is true with the captain and the cargo inside the hull of the ship. But from a light house , which has a different velocity as the ship, the ship is moving.

To help you understand, look at a person sat next to you in the car, does it look like that person is moving? No, because you have the same velocity as them. Now look outside at the ground, it looks like it is moving because you have different velocities.
