1

If staffing levels allow, the engine company officer is more effective if he is doing what?

1

Keeping down low, on both knees ______________________________.

1

Mechanical and hydraulic ventilation through the use of a fog nozzle is less effective than using fans because it does not move as much air.

1

Nozzle reaction is measured in pounds of force and is a function of which two factors?

1

Once the hose is properly stretched and flaked out, the pump operator is notified to charge the line. Prior to entering the fire area the nozzle person "bleeds the line" to expel trapped air an determine that they have sufficient water flow and pressure.

1

Operating master stream devices outside of their specified range of operation can result in all of the following except ________________________.

1

Overhaul is one of the more dangerous times in a fire building because _______________.

1

Prior to operating the nozzle, which body position should the nozzle operator avoid at all cost?

1

Standpipe system operations are often plagued by poor maintenance, lack of proper inspections, pressure-reducing valves that are not adjustable, and debris stuffed in the inlet connections. This has brought many department to rely upon what size hose and nozzle combination for high-rise standpipe operations?

1

Sweeping the ceiling with large amounts of water out front and overhead through the superheated fuel-laden smoke will cause the phenomenon known as flashover.

1

The Bresnan distributor nozzle is used primarily for what type of fire?

1

The backup person on a nozzle team provides what benefit to the nozzle person:

1

The classic "duck walk" position keeps firefighters low with their knees off the floor.

1

The direct method of fire attack is to apply a solid or straight stream of water directly onto the burning object. This is best used when ______________.

1

The door position on an attack hoseline provides what function?

1

The doorway used for access of the initial attack line may be the first ventilation opening to which the fire has access. As such, it is beneficial for the team to do what after opening the door?

1

The nozzle is the tool at the very heart of the entire fireground operation. It provides which of the following functions?

1

Typically, fog nozzles have a rotational control to adjust the pattern from straight stream to wide-angle fog spray. Rotating this control from left to right will change the pattern from wide-angle fog to narrow fog, to straight stream.

1

Under most circumstances, in a typical room and contents fire in low rise one and two family homes, which size hand line is sufficient for proper water flow?

1

Useful in indirectly attacking a fire in unoccupied spaces, water's expansion from a liquid to steam can quickly smother a fire. The approximate expansion rate is _________________.
