Projections up to how many inches in diameter on a slide should not stick up more than 1/8th inch?

  1. 3 inches

  2. 2 inches

  3. 4 inches

  4. 5 inches

The correct answer is: 3 inches

Projections up to 3 inches in diameter on a slide should not stick up more than 1/8th inch to avoid causing discomfort or injury to the person using the slide. This rule is based on safety regulations and engineering standards to ensure the smooth and safe use of playground equipment. Options B, C, and D are incorrect as they all exceed the maximum allowable diameter for projections on a slide. This could result in hazards such as getting stuck or potential for falls. It is important to adhere to these guidelines to prevent accidents and keep users safe.
