When a car is at rest, its driver sees rain drops falling on it vertically. When driving the car with speed $v,$ he sees that rain drops are coming at an angle $60^{\circ}$ from the horizontal. On further increasing the speed of the car to $(1+\beta) v ,$ this angle changes to $45^{\circ} .$ The value of $\beta$ is close to$......$
