Prove that for a fluid with a constant density flowing at a steady-state through a straight pipe with an entry diameter of D1 and an exit diameter of D2 where D1 > D2, the difference of the velocities, i.e. v1 v2 (velocity in velocity out), has a negative value. Suppose that for the same system, the ratio of the velocities v1/v2 = 1/4, what is the relationship between D1 and D2?
