This condition is caused by "water hammer". It's water pressure fluxuations caused by turning faucet on & off. To fix the problem, attach (solder?) a length of pipe, as long as possible, but 16-18 inches should suffice, with a cap on the end, installed vertically, with a tee joint, behind the faucet. Anywhere in the feed pipe near the faucet is OK, but the closer the better. When water is brought back up to poressure, a air shock absorber is created, and will solve your water hammer problem.
A water stopper is used to seal a drain or pipe to prevent water from flowing through. It is commonly found in sinks, bathtubs, and other plumbing fixtures to hold water in the basin.
It depends on how much each pipe can hold. And how long each pipe is.

A water pipe bursting is a physical reaction. It does not involve any chemical changes in the water itself, but rather a physical change in the structure of the pipe, causing it to break and release the water inside.
It's called water-hammer. I vibration from the water pressure. A snub-end pipe can be added to devert the vibration.
Water flowing through the pipe creates some friction. That friction creates vibration, vibration = sound.
The force of the water hitting the pipe constantly is enough. Air in the system
The gray water pipe is UPVC .
To effectively repair a galvanized pipe using a repair coupling, follow these steps: Turn off the water supply to the pipe. Cut out the damaged section of the pipe using a pipe cutter. Clean the cut ends of the pipe with a wire brush. Slide the repair coupling onto one end of the pipe. Slide the other end of the pipe into the other side of the repair coupling. Tighten the screws on the repair coupling to secure it in place. Turn the water supply back on and check for leaks.
To repair a PVC pipe leak at a joint, you can use a PVC pipe repair coupling or a PVC pipe repair epoxy. First, turn off the water supply to the pipe. Then, clean and dry the area around the leak. Apply the repair coupling or epoxy according to the manufacturer's instructions. Allow it to cure before turning the water supply back on.
To fix vibration in water pipes, you can try securing loose pipes with pipe hangers or cushioning them with pipe insulation. Check for any obstructions or high water pressure that may be causing the vibration. If the issue persists, you may need to consult a professional plumber to assess and address the problem.
Symptoms of a clogged vent pipe include slow draining sinks, gurgling noises from drains, foul odors coming from drains, and water backing up in sinks or toilets.
To effectively repair a copper pipe leak, you can follow these steps: Turn off the water supply to the pipe. Clean the area around the leak with sandpaper.
