Solution

The correct option is B objects moving at the speed of light
Classical relativity is applicable for slow moving objects, that is, speed lesser than the maximum speed achievable, c.
When the speed approaches the speed of light, the classical relativity fails and instead the Special Theory of Relativity comes into picture.
