AIDA 401 - MODULE 6 EXAM
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
domino theory (sequence of events) - Correct Answers -proposes that five accident
factors can form a chain of events that lead in succession to an accident and injury
energy transfer theory - Correct Answers -theory that proposes that the basic cause of
accidents is energy out of control
job safety analysis - Correct Answers -breaks down each activity or operation into
separate sequential steps, identifying hazards associated with each step, defining
controls and assigning responsibility for implementing each step
root cause analysis - Correct Answers -helps dig past obvious causes of an accident to
find other factors that played a role
radio frequency identification - Correct Answers -a technology that uses radio frequency
to identify objects
radio frequency identification tag - Correct Answers -a transponder that communicates
with an antenna and transceiver using radio frequency identification
internet of things - Correct Answers -a network of objects that transmit data to and from
each other without human interaction
theoretical probability - Correct Answers -probability based on theoretical principles
rather than on actual experience; unchanging and often associated with events like coin
tosses/dice rolls
empirical probability - Correct Answers -the probability measure that is based on actual
experience through historical data or from observation of facts
discrete probability distributions - Correct Answers -have a finite number of probability
distributions
continuous probability distributions - Correct Answers -have an infinite number of
possible outcomes
