Question
A tunnel connecting two portions of a space station has a circular cross-section of radius 34 feet. Two walkway decks are constructed in the tunnel. Deck A is along a horizontal diameter and another parallel Deck B is 2 feet below Deck A. Because the space station is in a weightless environment, you can walk vertically upright along Deck A, or vertically upside down along Deck B. You have been assigned to paint "safety stripes" on each deck level, so that a 6 foot person can safely walk upright along either deck. Determine the width of the "safe walk zone" on each deck. Deck A --> x-axis Deck B (a) Cross-section of tunnel. Deck A Deck B- = Safe walk zone (b) Walk zones. Deck A has a "safe walk zone" of feet. Deck B has a "safe walk zone" of feet Question Help: D Post to forum 1O Chp esc @ 2$ % & 3
