Answer: 110.12 m/s

We will use the formula A1V1 = A2V2 where 7.8 m/s is divided with 0.0085 m then multiply to 0.12 m, the result will be 110.117 or 110.12 m/s. This is related to the continuity of fluid flow in which as liquid moves horizontally, the same amount of liquid goes out as it comes in or the liquid itself do not change as it moves but the speed does when the diameter changes.
