Advanced Scuba Chapter Quizzes (NAUI)
UPDATED ACTUAL Questions and
CORRECT Answers
The most efficient way to approximately measure 800 m underwater is to use kick cycles to
count the distance traveled - CORRECT ANSWER - true
Natural navigation does not require you to look back at where you have been and should never
be combined with compass navigation - CORRECT ANSWER - False
A compass is non-magnetic and does not interact with manmade objects or magnetic fields -
CORRECT ANSWER - False
put the basic natural navigation procedure in the correct order - CORRECT ANSWER - 1)
establish starting references
2) follow pre-planned general course
3 )move forward from nav aid to nav aid and frequently look back
4) develop a desire to remember
pair navigation equipment with information it provides - CORRECT ANSWER - Dive
computer: duration of swimming and vertical position in the water column
compass: bearings and degree markings to plot a path
timing device: duration of swimming
clear mind: concentration of maintaining a bearing and noting natural navigation aids
depth gauge: vertical position in the water column
, match cardinal directions with their correct degree values - CORRECT ANSWER - South:
180
north: 0
east: 90
west: 270
put the basic procedure for compass navigation in the correct order - CORRECT
ANSWER - have a starting heading and follow a general course
take a bearing on the most distant object you can see for your heading
as you go from point to point mentally note natural navigation items that might aid you on return
be aware of deviation if you're navigating around wrecks or other ferrous metal objects
As you swim compensate for currents to maintain the bearing
Put the steps of surface positioning or getting a fix in the correct order - CORRECT
ANSWER - visually identify two objects that are directly inline with each other
take a bearing on the first pair of objects
write down the objects and the bearing
turn 90 and select two more objects that are directly inline with that bearing
