    The water at point C runs faster than at point A and B.
    Tricky part is the water at point D.
    After leaving the pipe there is no pressure and the water slows down.
    But at the same time the gravity will take hold ff the water and accelerate it.
    It all depends on the speed at point C and the maximum speed the water can get before reaching the ground (or other surface).
