To measure the velocity at a point in the fluid, flowing in a transparent walled channel, a laser light

beam of wavelength 680nm is used to illuminate the small particles in the flow at 90, as shown
in the figure. The light scattered by particles is detected by a photodetector that is inclined to the
channel with = 30. If u = 25m/s, calculate the Doppler shift, fD.
