An Incompressible Fluid Is Flowing Through a Horizontal Pipe with a Constriction

An incompressible fluid is flowing through a horizontal pipe with a constriction. The velocity of the fluid in the wide section of the pipe is 6.00 m/s and the velocity of the fluid in the narrow section of pipe is 8.00 m/s. The pressure of the fluid in the wide section is 250 kPa. What is the pressure in the narrow section of the pipe? (density of the fluid is 1,000 kg/m³)

A) 183 kPa
B) 236 kPa
C) 268 kPa
D) 285 kPa
E) 298 kPa
