A fish rising vertically upward with a uniform velocity of $8 \mathrm{~m~s}^{-1}$, observes that a bird is diving vertically downward towards the fish with the velocity of $12 \mathrm{~m~s}^{-1}$. If the refractive index of water is $\frac{4}{3}$, then the actual velocity of the diving bird to pick the fish, will be $\_\_\_\_$ m s$^{-1}$.
