Water enters a 1-m-diameter pipe at a velocity of 5 m/s. The end of 1-m-diameter pipe reduces and splits into two smaller pipes of different diameters. One small pipe has a diameter of 0.55 m and the other with 0.40 m diameter. If the velocity in the 0.40-m-diamter pipe is 30 percent faster than in the 0.55-m diameter pipe, what is the velocity in the 0.40-m diameter pipe?
