What is the fall height of a Seesaw?

  1. The distance between the seesaw and the protective surfacing.

  2. The highest point any part of the seesaw can reach and the protective surfacing.

  3. The distance from the ground to the seesaw seat.

  4. The maximum height a child can reach on the seesaw.

The correct answer is: The highest point any part of the seesaw can reach and the protective surfacing.

The fall height of a seesaw refers to the maximum distance between the highest point of the seesaw and the protective surfacing beneath it. Option A is incorrect because it does not account for the height of the seesaw itself. Option C is incorrect because it does not take into consideration the movement of the seesaw while in use. Option D is incorrect because it only considers the height of a child, not the height of the seesaw. Therefore, B is the correct answer as it encompasses all aspects of the fall height.
