An incompressible fluid flows steadily through a horizontal cylindrical pipe. The pipe has radius $3R$ at point $A$ and $1.5R$ at point $B$, further along the flow direction at the same level. If the velocity at point $A$ is $v$, then the velocity at point $B$ is:

  • A
    $v$
  • B
    $2v$
  • C
    $3v$
  • D
    $4v$
