Range Laser Safety Questions and Answers Rated A+

Range Laser Safety Questions and Answers Rated A+ Which of the following is not a responsibility of an LRSO as part of conducting a range laser safety inspection? Check range conditions to ensure the are acceptable for the laser operation Which of the following is not a duty of an LRSO? Certify ranges for range laser operations What class of laser system is capable of producing a skin hazard? Class 4 You are supervising a range laser operation and enforcing the use of LEP (Laser Eye Protection). Which is the following LEP should be used with the laser system. OD 7 @ 710-1200nm As an LRSO, you will ensure a clear line of sight exists between the laser system and the target prior to starting a laser operation. What type of control measure does this represent? Engineering Control You are supervising a laser operation involving Class 4 laser systems. You brief personnel to roll their sleeves down because these lasers present a skin hazard. Which type of control measure does this represent? Administrative control You are supervising a range laser operation involving laser-guided weapons. The munition detonations are cause smoke and dust to partially obscure the targets. As LRSO, what action should you take? Hold training until the smoke and dust clear. Lasers are used for variety of military applications. What time of laser application uses a laser primarily as a warning device? Ocular interruption You are serving as LRSO for a range laser operation. Due to the operating principles of lasers, you have certain duties pertaining to the LSDZ. Which of the following actions must you ensure? LEP is worn inside the LSDZ You are supervising a laser operation and observe reflection of the laser beyond the targets. You call a Cease Fire. What could be the cause of the reflection? Targets may be smaller than laser spot size and overspill is occurring. What is the principal hazard associated with an operation involving laser target designation and laser-guided weapons? Fratricide What does "M" designator indicate when associated with a class of laser systems (e.g/, Class1M)? Hazardous when viewed with magnifying optics What is the definition of a Laser Surface Danger Zone (LSDZ)? The designated ground area where laser radiation levels may exceed Maximum Permissible Exposure Levels (MPE) What type of laser application uses a laser to aid visual acquisition of a target by identifying laser energy output from a laser designator and displaying the target's position? Laser target designation/laser guided weapon Prior to a laser operation, you are viewing the target area through optics. You are concerned because you believe the target could present a specular reflection of the laser beam. Which item on the vehicle are you concerned could present this hazard? Plate glass window You are inspecting a range prior to the start of a range laser operation. You observe standing water within the LSDZ that pooled there last night during a rain storm. As a LRSO, what action do you take? Call Range Control for guidance As an LRSO, it helps to understand the placement of the laser designator in an operation involving a laser-guided weapon to preclude the munitions from being dropped on the laser designator position rather than the target. Laser Designator 2 A diffuse reflection differs from a specular reflection. Which of the following statements is not true regarding diffuse reflection? A diffuse reflection produces a concentrated beam that allows a seeker to lock on. During a laser operation, as an LRSO you are responsible for ensuring lasers are oriented correctly. How should lasers be oriented? Lasers are pointed down toward the ground until a target has been identified. What is the principal hazard associated with exposure to a laser radiation? Eye Damage
