Water from a reservoir flowing through a non rigid 600mm diameter pipe with a velocity of 2.90m/s is completely stopped by a closure of a valve situated 1050m from the reservoir. The pipe thickness is 18mm. Bulk modulus of elasticity of water is 2090 MPa and modulus of elasticity of steel is 200090 MPa.
