VERIFIED ANSWERS
1. What is the correct compression depth for performing CPR on an
adult?
A) 1 inch
B) 1.5 inches
C) 2 inches
D) 3 inches
Correct Answer: C) 2 inches
Rationale: For adult CPR, compressions should be at least 2 inches deep
but not exceeding 2.4 inches. This depth ensures adequate blood flow
to vital organs during cardiac arrest. Compressions that are too shallow
(1-1.5 inches) may not generate sufficient pressure to circulate blood
effectively.
2. ABAs for B on the 700 aircraft are located where?
A) First row of six people
B) Last row of people
C) Exit row
D) Middle section
Correct Answer: B) Last row of people
,Rationale: On the Boeing 737-700, ABA (Assigned Boarding Area) B
passengers are seated in the last row of the aircraft. This is part of the
zone boarding system that helps streamline the boarding process and
ensures efficient passenger flow.
3. A passenger with a known peanut allergy requests a peanut-free
flight. What is the appropriate response?
A) Inform them it's not possible to guarantee a peanut-free
environment
B) Remove all peanuts from the aircraft
C) Ask all other passengers to refrain from eating peanuts
D) Move the passenger to first class
Correct Answer: A) Inform them it's not possible to guarantee a
peanut-free environment
Rationale: Due to the nature of aircraft operations and the difficulty in
controlling what other passengers bring onboard, airlines cannot
guarantee a completely peanut-free environment. FAs should offer
reasonable accommodations but be honest about limitations.
4. After the captain advises you to prepare the cabin, where must you
go to obtain information from the "A" flight attendant?
A) Aft galley
B) Forward galley
C) Mid-cabin
D) Flight deck
Correct Answer: B) Forward galley
,Rationale: The forward galley serves as the primary coordination point
for cabin preparation. The "A" flight attendant (lead FA) typically
positions there and has the planned emergency checklist readily
available for the team.
5. During an aircraft evacuation as the "A" FA, from which exit do you
command the evacuation?
A) Overwing exit
B) Aft exit
C) Forward entry door
D) Emergency slide
Correct Answer: C) Forward entry door
Rationale: The "A" flight attendant is responsible for commanding the
evacuation from the forward entry door. This position allows them to
coordinate with the flight deck and oversee the primary exit point for
passengers.
6. How would chest compressions differ when performing CPR on a
baby?
A) Use two hands, compressions 2 inches deep
B) Use two fingers, compressions 1.5 inches deep
C) Use one hand, compressions 2 inches deep
D) Use two fingers, compressions 2.5 inches deep
Correct Answer: B) Use two fingers, compressions 1.5 inches deep
, Rationale: For infants, the two-finger technique is recommended to
avoid damaging internal organs. The compression depth of
approximately 1.5 inches (about one-third of the chest depth) is
appropriate for the infant's smaller body size.
7. What does Class 1 hazardous material represent?
A) Gases
B) Flammable liquid
C) Explosives
D) Corrosives
Correct Answer: C) Explosives
Rationale: Class 1 hazardous materials are explosives, including items
like fireworks, ammunition, and blasting agents. These materials require
special handling and strict compliance with transportation regulations.
8. What does Class 2 hazardous material represent?
A) Explosives
B) Gases
C) Flammable liquid
D) Oxidizers
Correct Answer: B) Gases
Rationale: Class 2 covers gases, including compressed, liquefied, or
dissolved gases. This category includes items like oxygen cylinders,
propane, and aerosol products that can be flammable, non-flammable,
or toxic.
