An engine pumps water continuously through a hose. Water leaves the hose with a velocity $v$ and $m$ is the mass per unit length of the water jet. What is the rate at which kinetic energy is imparted to water?

  • A
    $mv^2$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{2} mv^2$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2} m^2v^2$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{2} mv^3$
