Water (of density $\varrho$) flows steadily through a horizontal pipe of variable cross-section. If the pressure of water is $P$ at a point where the flow speed is $V$,then the pressure at another point where the flow speed becomes $3V$ is:

  • A
    $P + 4 \varrho V^2$
  • B
    $P - 4 \varrho V^2$
  • C
    $P + 8 \varrho V^2$
  • D
    $P - 8 \varrho V^2$
