Water from a reservoir flowing through a pipe with a diameter of 600mm at 1.80m/s is completely stopped by a closure of a valve situated 150m from the reservoir. The pipe has a thickness of 20mm. The modulus of elasticity of the pipe is 1.40x10¹¹ Pa. The bulk modulus of water is 2.20x10ºPa. Assume that the pressure increases at a uniform rate and there is no damping of the pressure wave. Which of the following most nearly gives the composite bulk modulus of elasticity of the pipe and water?
