What is the radial speed of the quasar with respect to earth

Reference no: EM13701291

Problem: When studying the optical spectrum of a very distant quasar(quasi stellar object), they found that a certain spectral line appears at a wavelength of 520 nm instead of the regular 418nm, in terms of the speed of the light, what is the radial speed of the quasar with respect to earth?

Hello Experts please provide me the detailed work and steps for above problem.
