You are kayaking on a river that, at one point, flows with a velocity of 1.15 m/s when the river's cross-section is 17.5 m wide and 6.79 m deep. If the river's depth remains the same at a point further down the river, but the width narrows to 5.21 m, what is the river's new speed at this new point, in m/s?
