PADI - Section 5 Knowledge Check fully solved graded A+ 2023/2024

PADI - Section 5 Knowledge CheckGoing to altitude after diving may be a problem because a) lower pressure can increase DCS risk b) higher pressure can increase DCS risk c) lower pressure can increase oxygen problems d) higher pressure can increase oxygen problems - correct answer a) lower pressure can increase DCS risk The difference between flying after diving and altitude diving is that when flying after diving, I go to altitude after a dive, and in altitude diving, I begin and end with a dive at altitude. TRUE or FALSE? - correct answer True My buddy and I have made two no stop dives a day for the last two days. Based on current recommendations, we should wait at least _____ after our last dive before flying. A) 6 hours B) 12 hours C) 18 hours D) 24 hours - correct answer C) 18 hours Cold and/or strenuous dives may be a problem with respect to DCS risk because A) I may end the dives with more dissolved nitrogen than calculated by dive computer or tables B) It is easier to ascend too fast when I make a cold/strenuous dive C) Cool water can shut down my computer - correct answer A) I may end the dives with more dissolved nitrogen than calculated by dive computer or tables If I'm cold or exert myself strenuously during a dive, I should A) not make the safety stop B) be even more conservative - correct answer B) be even more conservative Using the RDP Table or eRDPML, I should calculate a cold or strenuous dive as A) 4 meters/10 feet shallower than the actual depth B) 4 meters/10 feet deeper than the actual depth C) having no surface interval D) requiring emergency decompression - correct answer B) 4 meters/10 feet deeper than the actual depth I would find a minimum surface interval when, after a dive, I want to know how long the _____ would be. A) no stop time and depth for the next dive B) time at the surface - correct answer B) time at the surface One way to find a minimum surface interval with a computer is to periodically check the no stop times for the depth you want, between dives. TRUE or FALSE? - correct answer TRUE I can use the RDP Table or eRDPML to find the exact time my dive computer requires for a minimum surface interval. TRUE or FALSE? - correct answer FALSE If I go over a no stop limit, I A) must surface at avery slow rate B) will have to make one or more emergency decompression stops - correct answer B) will have to make one or more emergency decompression stops The depths and times of emergency decompression stops are A) given by my dive computer B) standardized at 6 meters/20 feet and 3 meters/10 feet for 3 minutes C) Not important, as long as I make the stops - correct answer A) given by my dive computer If I surface without making an emergency decompression stop, I should get a fresh cylinder of air and then go back underwater to make the stop. TRUE or FALSE? - correct answer False
