they should be tied off, if they are more than __?__ feet off the ground.
• Strike Team.
Answer: - Consists of a set number of resources of the same kind and type,
operating under a designated leader. - Ex: Team all on the same level of
training such as a crew of firefighters responding to a structure fire.
• 1.) cooling 2.) containing the fire 3.) Controlling a certain aspect of the
situation.
Answer: Master streams are usually used to achieve one of what three
things?
• NFPA 1561.
Answer: What NFPA code identifies, defines, and describes the minimum
requirements and essential elements of an incident management system
(IMS) used to manage all emergency exits?
• Pyrolysis.
Answer: What is defined as the chemical decomposition of a solid material
by heating?
• Mechanical Advantage Systems (MA).
Answer: - Referred to as haul systems which are rope systems generally
constructed from life safety rope, pulleys and other rope rescue system
components capable of lifting and moving a load. - Make raising a recue
load easier, more conveient and safer
• Annually.
, Answer: Using an SCBA is required for the user to have a medical
examination __?__ , ensuring fitness to perform the requirement of the job.
• 9000 BTU.
Answer: 1 gallon of water absorbs __?__ British thermal units (BTU)per
minute when applied at 60%, fully vaporized, and superheated to 500°F.
• Synthetic Fiber Rope.
Answer: - Have strands that continuously run through the length of the rope
- Do not absorb water as readily as natural fibers - Greater ability to absorb
shock loading - Do not rot or degrade quickly - Can be used to make more
advanced rope designs - Resist abrasion - Better for life safety because they
are more resistant to abrasion and the fibers are static (low-stretch) - Nylon
handles shock loading better than polyester making nylon better for
technical rescue
• 1.) Conduction 2.) Convection 3.) Radiation.
Answer: Heat can be transferred during a fire by what three methods?
• In- line eductors.
Answer: __?__ are some of the least expensive and simplest pieces of
proportion equipment available. For this reason, they are perhaps the most
common type of foam proportion are used in the fire service.
• (RIC) Rapid Intervention Crew.
Answer: The most important goal during emergency situation is to ensure
the safety and survival of firefighters and others that may be in harms way.
A priority at any incident is the safety of personnel in the immediate area.
Several ways of enhancing the safety is using a personal accountability
system. Using a __?__ while personnel are in the IDLH, monitoring the air
prior to entering a confined space, and have a evacuation plan in place.
• Supplied Air Respirator (SAR).
Answer: - The air source can be an air cart or manifold that holds two or
more air bottles connected to a regulator. - Limited to no more than 300ft of
hose from the regulated source. - Inlet pressure is regulated to between 80
, and 120 psi - Emergency escape bottle attached to the harness with a
minimum of 5-15 minutes of breathing air.
• 1.) agility and mobility 2.) visibility while wearing an SCBA is limited 3.)
The voice is muffled and hard to understand 4.) The quantity of air is
limited.
Answer: What are the 4 limitations of using SCBA units?
• Remove from the IDLH area.
Answer: In general what will take precedence over stabilizing injuries
before moving?
• Purpose of ICS.
Answer: - Safety of responders and others - Achievement of tactical
objectives - Efficient use of resources
• Hazardous Atmosphere.
Answer: May expose employees to risk of death, incapacitation, impairment,
injury or acute illness.
• Post REHAB Triage.
Answer: - Returned to duty - Removed from duty - Transported to medical
facility

Answer: NFPA __?__ has Developed recommended foam application rates
for various fuse and storage arrangements.
• Reducers.
Answer: What is another common fitting in used to extend a larger hose line
by connecting a smaller whole lot hose line to the end
• LUNAR LIPS.
Answer: Firefighters should follow local protocols when communicating the
distress signal; however, two commonly used acronyms are used to help
remember the information that needs to be transmitted if it made a is called.
What other two acronyms?
, • Foam nozzles.
Answer: Foam proportioning, air aspirating, and non-air aspirating are the
three types of __?__
• Load Distributing Anchor System (LDA).
Answer: Multi point anchor system that distributes the weight of a load on
the anchor points despite direction changes on the main line rope
• Overhaul.
Answer: What is defined as searching for and putting out any fire that is still
burning after the main fire has been put out?
• 75 degrees.
Answer: The optimal angle of inclination is approximately __?__ degrees.
When the angles deviate from __?__ degrees, the ladder stability decreases

Answer: There are 3 jurisdictional approaches to emergency response - Self
Sufficient Method - Community Dependent Method - Regional Method
• Frequently Stop.
Answer: While searching, the RIC should __?__ , remain silent, and listen
for the activated pass device.
• Operations Section Chief Responsibilites.
Answer: - Implementing strategies and managing tactical activities to
achieve incident objectives established by IC. - Operations chief focuses on
preserving life, reducing immediate hazard, protecting property and the
environment
• Static pressure.
Answer: What is pressure in a system without water flowing?
• Reaction.
Answer: The force of nature that makes the nozzle move in the opposite
direction of the water flow; nozzle stream pattern, gpm, and pressure will
