UPDATED ACTUAL QUESTIONS AND
CORRECT ANSWERS
What part of your eyes do you use mostly during the day - CORRECT
ANSWER cones
What part of your eyes do you use at night - CORRECT ANSWER rods
Why at night might you have trouble seeing something directly in front of you - CORRECT
ANSWER rods use peripheral vison
What is motion sickness and how do you help it - CORRECT ANSWER Motion
sickness is over stimulation of the little hairs in your ear and some solutions are: cold air, not
moving head, or look outside
Why do they recommend to use supplemental oxygen at night above 5000 feet - CORRECT
ANSWER your rods use more oxygen at night
what are the different types of hypoxia and define them - CORRECT
ANSWER Hypoxic- decreased oxygen to the body because of altitude
Hypemic- blood cannot transfer oxygen
Stagnate- decrease in blood flow
Histotoxic- cells have inability to make proper use of oxygen
What are syptom differs from hypoxia and hyperventilation - CORRECT
ANSWER limbs and fingernails turn blue
What is adverse yaw? - CORRECT ANSWER The tendency of an airplane to yaw
opposite the direction it is rolling.
, What are the oxygen requirements for a pressurized cabin above FL250 - CORRECT

How does a turbocharger work? - CORRECT ANSWER A turbocharger recovers waste
energy from the engine exhaust stream and uses it to power a turbine which in turn drives a
compressor. This compressor draws in ambient air, compresses it and then feeds it into the
engine intake resulting in a greater mass of air and, proportionally, a greater amount of fuel
entering the cylinders on the intake stroke. This increase in air and fuel results in the
turbocharged engine being more powerful and efficient than its naturally aspirated
counterpart.
What does a camshaft do - CORRECT ANSWER opens and closes cylinders' intake
and exhaust valves
What does a impulse coupling do - CORRECT ANSWER It delays the firing of the
magneto to more of a top dead center position and when the catch lets go, the built-up energy
in the spring speeds up the rotation of the magneto.
