Answer:

v₁ = 9 m/s

Explanation:

Here, we can use the continuity equation, as follows:

[tex]A_1v_1 = A_2v_2[/tex]

where,

A₁ = Cross-sectional area of the wider section = 48 cm²

A₂ = Cross-sectional area of the constriction = 12 cm²

v₁ = speed of flow in wider section = ?

v₂ = speed flow in constriction = 36 m/s

Therefore,

[tex](48\ cm^2)v_1 = (12\ cm^2)(36\ m/s)\\\\v_1 = \frac{(12\ cm^2)(36\ m/s)}{(48\ cm^2)} \\\\[/tex]

v₁ = 9 m/s
