Answer:

The water will move faster

Step-by-step explanation:

This happens as part of the consequences of the continuity of an incompressible fluid, of which water is an example.

so as the water emerges from the wider section the flow velocity increases and vice versa.

Hence the flow velocity in indirectly proportional to the area

The continuity equation is given below for our analysis


A1V1=A2V2\\-------------------1

where

A1= the area of the wider section of the tank

V1= the flow velocity from the wider section

A2= the area of the hole at the bottom

V2= velocity of flow at the bottom.
