1. Probable cause is not needed to obtain an administra- true
tive search warrant.
a.True
b.False
2. Heat transfer to another body or within a body by conduction
direct contact is called:
a.Conduction.
b.Convection.
c.Radiation.
d.Pyrolysis.
3. Fuses and circuit breakers provide protection against true
electrical short circuits, ground/earth faults,and load
currents that might be damaging (i.e. overloads) to the
building electrical system.Properly functioning circuit
protection may allow the elimination of the buildings
wiring system as a potential cause of the fire.
a.True
b.False
4. In pre-flashover conditions the primary heat transfer false
mechanism for fire spread through a
compartment is radiation.
a.True
b.False
5. In a compartment, flashover occurs because convec- false
tive heat energy raises combustible to their auto-igni-
tion temperature.
a.True
b.False

6. Combustion may continue with available oxygen con- true
centrations lower than 1 percent.
a.True
b.False
7. The way structures react in a fire often influence how true
the fire grows and spreads as well as how theymain-
tain their structural integrity during the fire. Therefore,
the fire investigator should considerthe type of struc-
ture and method of construction when completing the
analysis of fire growth and spread as a part of their fire
investigation.
a.True
b.False
8. Materials which have been properly treated with false
flame-retardants will not undergo pyrolysis andfor this
reason will not ignite.
a.True
b.False
9. Data that is based on observation or experience and empirical
can be verified is called:
a.Anecdotal data
b.Empirical data
c.Qualitative data
d.Categorical data
10. Inductive reasoning is when all available empirical true
data is analyzed using the investigator's experience,
training, knowledge and expertise.
a.True
b.False
