A 0.5-m-diametcr concrete pipe (5.0 cm wall thickness with rigid pipe walls) carries water 600 m before

Question:

A 0.5-m-diametcr concrete pipe (5.0 cm wall thickness with rigid pipe walls) carries water 600 m before discharging it into another reservoir. The surface elevation of the downstream reservoir is 55 m lower than the supply reservoir. A gate valve just upstream of the lower reservoir controls the flow rate. If the valve is closed in 0.65 sec, what is the maximum water hammer pressure?
