- CLarger; turbidity
- DSmaller; conduction
4In technical diving, decompression stops are planned so the diver doesn't end up with ___________ that result in decompression sickness.
- Atoo low a partial pressure of nitrogen
- Ban excessive gas pressure gradient
- Can emergency ascent
- Dtoo high an oxygen gas tension
5If you take a full breath from your cylinder at 20 meters/66 feet, you're inhaling ________ the number of air molecules as a full breath at the surface. Therefore, your gas supply will last _______ as long as using the same cylinder at the surface.
- Atwice; half
- Bthree times; three times
- Cone third; one third
- Dthree times; one third
6If a diver has consumed 100 bar/1400 psi after spending 10 minutes at 30 meters/99 feet, approximately how much gas will he consume at 10 meters/33 feet if he spends 15, minutes there (assuming all other factors remain the same)?

7If a full scuba cylinder is left outside on a hot, sunny day
- Athe pressure will increase and the volume will remain the same.
- Bthe pressure will decrease and the volume will remain the same.
- Cthe pressure won't change, but the volume will increase.
- Dthe pressure will decrease and the burst disc may blow.
8The force of buoyancy is predicted by ________ and is an __________ force exerted on an object placed in fluid.
- ABoyle's Law; upward
- BHaldane's Principle; equal
- CDalton's Law; equal
- DArchimedes' Principle; upward
9Why do you need more weight diving in the ocean than in a freshwater lake, even when you are wearing the same equipment?
- AFresh water is usually colder
- BThe ocean has more waves
- CSalt water weighs more for a given volume
- DFresh water is more genes
10Water is able to conduct heat more efficiently than air because
- Athe molecules flow more smoothly than air.
- Bit is denser than air.
- Cit is less dense than air.
- Dthe molecules are more fluid than air.

- DLess than 71 liters/2.50 cubic feet
12If it takes a diver 90 minutes to breathe all the air from a scuba cylinder at the surface, approximately how long will the air in that cylinder last at 20 meters/66 feet of sea water if all other conditions remain the same?
- A45 minutes
- B30 minutes
- C18 minutes
- D15 minutes
13During a wall dive in the ocean, you release a balloon at a depth of 24 meters/80 feet. The balloon contains one liter of air. What is the balloon's volume at the surface?
