The altimeter reading is 29.17 from the Kollsman window is 29.17 in Hg

<h3>How to determine the altimeter reading?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Ground level = 700 ft i.e. the field elevation
Pressure altitude = 1450 ft

The pressure altitude is calculated as:

Altitude = (29.92 – Altimeter reading) * 1,000 + Ground level

Substitute the known values

1450 = (29.92 - Altimeter reading) * 1000 + 700

Subtract 700 from both sides

750 = (29.92 - Altimeter reading) * 1000

Divide through by 1000

0.75 = 29.92 - Altimeter reading

Evaluate the like terms

Altimeter reading = 29.17

Hence, the altimeter reading is 29.17 from the Kollsman window is 29.17 in Hg

it can cross and reach top of trajectory if its top height h = 1.5m
and horizontal distance d = (1/2) Range
--------------------------------------...
let t be top height time
at top height, vertical component of its velocity =0
vy = 0 = u sin p - gt
t = u sin p/g
h = [u sin p]*t - 0.5 g[t[^2
1.5 = u^2 sin^2 p/g - u^2 sin^2 p/2g
u^2 sin^2 p/2g = 1.5
u^2 sin^2 p = 1.5*2*9.8 = 29.4
u sin p = 5.42 m/s >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> V-component
=====================
t = HALF the time of flight
d = (1/2) Range (R) = (1/2) [2 u^2 sin p cos p/g]
1 = u^2 sin p cos p/g
u sin p * u cos p = 9.8
5.42 * u cos p = 9.8
u cos p = 1.81 m/s >>>>>>>>>>>>> H-component
check>>
u = sqrt[u^2 cos^2 p + u^2 sin^2 p] = 5.71 m/s
u < less than fish's potential jump speed 6.26 m/s

so it will able to cross</span>
