1) Fluid velocity will decrease.
2) Lateral pressure will fall.
3) Total energy will increase.

Bernoulli's principle states that as a fluid flows through a narrow passage, its velocity increases, which leads to a decrease in lateral (or static) pressure. The total energy of the fluid remains constant, assuming no energy is added or lost in the system.
