Problem

A fish rises vertically inside a pond with velocity 4 cm s−14\,\text{cm s}^{-1} and notices a bird diving downward. The bird's velocity appears to be 16 cm s−116\,\text{cm s}^{-1} relative to the fish. What is the real velocity of the diving bird if the refractive index of water is 43\frac43?
