# A horizontal pipe carries water that flows from Point A to Point B. If the speed of the water at Point B is greater than at Point A, how does the pressure at Point B compare to Point A?

A horizontal pipe carries water that flows from Point A to Point B. If the speed of the water at Point B is greater than at Point A, how does the pressure at Point B compare to Point A?

- **A.** The pressures are equal because the pipe is horizontal.
- **B.** The pressure at Point B depends only on the density of the water, not its speed.
- **C.** The pressure at Point B is lower than at Point A.
- **D.** The pressure at Point B is higher than at Point A.
