As a newly certified PADI Open Water Diver, I will be trained to dive with buddy
as deep as
18 metres/60 feet
Certain medical conditions can be hazardous while diving, so it is important to
answer all questions on the Medical Statement honestly and completely
True
PADI courses are performance based. This means that to be certified, I must..
meet specific performance requirments
Failure to complete assigned independent study can create significant delays,
and my instructor may have to cancel and reschedule sessions until I
complete the assignment.
True
When diving in a new dive environment, two benefits of seeking an orientation,
supervision and/or additional training are that it helps me avoid problems and
that it helps me enjoy the dive more.
True
As you descend in water the pressure
increases
A depth of 10 metres/33 feet causes a pressure change of
1 bar/ata
, Page 2 of 30
if you take 6 liters of air from the surface to 20 metres/66 feet, the volume will
be
2 litres
The density of the air in the previous question would be ______ the density at
the surface
3x
A balloon fully inflated and sealed at 10 metres/33 feet, would probably
_______ during acsent to the surface.
burst
As I descend, increasing pressure affects my
mask, ears, sinuses
A squeeze is caused by
a pressure imbalance between the surrounding pressure and an air space
Equalization is the process of
adding air to an air space
I should equalize
Before I feel pain or discomfort
I'm descending and discover I can't equalize. The first thing I would do is
stop my descent and see if the problem corrects itself
I equalize gently because an extended, forceful equalization can cause
permanent damage to my ears and hearing
True
On a day I plan to to go diving, I wake up with my sinuses blocked due to a
cold or allergy. I should
cancel my dive until I'm well
When scuba diving, normal breathing keeps your lungs equalized to the
surrounding pressure
True
The most important rule in scuba diving is to
Breathe continuously and never hold your breath
Failure to follow the most important rule in scuba diving can cause severe
lung overexpansion injuries, which can result in paralysis or death.
True
During ascent I feel discomfort in my ears. I should
, Page 3 of 30
stop, descend slightly and allow trapped air to work its way out.
My buddy and I descend to 12 metres/40 feet. I would expect to use my
air___________ at 6 metres/20 feet.
faster than
The most efficient way to breathe dense air underwater is to breathe
deeply and slowly
My body responds to anxiety with increased breathing but slow breathing
helps to reduce anxiety
True
Which of the following are among the breathing rules I follow as a diver?
1) Breathe continuously and never, ever, hold my breathe.
2) Breathe slowly and deeply.
3) Do not allow myself to get winded or out-of-breath.
4) If faced with a problem, stop, then maintain or restore slow, deep breathing.
Buoyancy is a force that pushes an object in water upward
True
My sunglasses case falls out of my pocket into the water, but fortunately, it
floats so I retrieve it. I would say my sunglasses case is ______ buoyant
positively
Salt water causes more buoyancy than fresh water because it is less dense
and weighs less
False. Salt water causes more buoyancy because it is more dense and weighs more;
buoyancy results from the weight of the water displaced
To control my buoyancy, normally I will use my weight system and my
BCD
When I descend, my buoyancy tends to ________. When I ascend, it tends to
_______.
decrease, increase
Underwater when I inhale my buoyancy
increases slightly
It is important to master buoyancy control because it affects almost everything
I do in and underwater.
True
