How tall should the sides be along the entire length of an inclined sliding surface for flat open chutes?

  1. 2 inches

  2. 3 inches

  3. 4 inches

  4. 5 inches

The correct answer is: 4 inches

For flat open chutes, the sides should typically be at least 4 inches tall along the entire length of the inclined sliding surface. This is to ensure that the material flowing down the chute does not spill over the sides and cause disruptions or hazards. Options A, B, and D are all too short and would not provide enough containment for the material. Option D, on the other hand, is too tall and would create unnecessary weight and potential instability in the chute. Therefore, option C is the best choice for ensuring safe and efficient operation of the chute.
