I honestly don't see anything in that list of choices that comes
anywhere close to an adequate description.

If a light source is approaching you at a speed very close to the speed of light, it will appear?
Bluer than it is.
What best describes a flight approaching the speed of sound?
If accelerating to the speed of sound, the subsonic.
What best describes a flight that is approaching speed of sound?
We call them ultra sonic planes. There is a sonic boom it is traveling when this speed.
If a light source is approaching you at a speed very close to the speed of light it will appear to be what color?
That all depends what color it was when it left the source. Whatever wavelength it had at the source, if it's approaching you, you'll measure a shorter wavelength (higher frequency) as it passes you. But don't forget that regardless of the speed or direction of the source, you'll measure the light passing you at the 'speed of light' ... no more or less.
What is the equation for velocity approaching that the speed of light?
The equation isv ≈ c

How fast is Hannah Erickson?
Almost as fast as wonderwoman--or approaching the speed of light which ever your prefer.
Which of these best describes a flight that is approaching the speed of sound?
more drag is created because the air molecules are not moving out of the way of the airplane
How long is the flight from Montreal to Lebanon?
1 second if you go at the speed of light
What is speed of light raised to the speed of light?
The speed of light is roughly 300 million meters per second.The mathematical operation described in the question has no meaning and can't be carried out,since the exponent must be a dimensionless number.
Would Light protons stop you if you were going at the speed of light?
No - you would be stopped BEFORE you reach the speed of light, by your increasing mass (among other things). As your speed approaches the speed of light, your mass would approach infinity, and it would require an infinite energy to actually achieve the speed of light.Note that the "speed of light" is not really about light. It is a speed limit of our Universe; some have described it as the "speed of causality".
What is the relative speed of light between light waves travelling in opposite directions towards each other is it 2c?
-- If you are not attached to either of those light waves, then you see each of them moving at the speed of 'c'. -- If you are attached to either one and traveling with it, then you see the other one approaching you at the speed of 'c'.
The formula for calculating kinetic energy can be written as?
In Newtonian mechanics the formula is: E = 1/2 m v^2 Where E is the kinetic energy, m the mass of an object and v its velocity. If the speed approaches that of light a different formula should be used according to special relativity: E = (gamma - 1) m c^2 Here c is the speed of light and gamma is the gamma factor given by: 1 / sqrt(1-sqr(v/c)).
