The throat section of the pipe has minimum cross-section. So according to the Continuity equation, the velocity will be maximum, or higher than that in any section of the pipe.
Thus, the velocity at throat will be higher than that at the inlet section of the pipe.
Thus, the velocity at throat will be higher than that at the inlet section of the pipe.

According to continuity equation A*V = Constant.
This implies velocity is inversely proportional to cross sectional area.
This implies velocity is inversely proportional to cross sectional area.

Throat is a valve like device which allows high pressure which in turn increases velocity compared to inlet valve.

According to continuity equation where the area is reduced. Velocity is increasing.

Because Q = a*v.
So, v = Q/a. v is inversely proportional to Area.
So, v = Q/a. v is inversely proportional to Area.
