are below the heart:<br> - CORRECT ANSWERSFalse, The ideal position for the patient is lying on the
back with the head flat or only slightly elevated
The TcOm electrode should be re-membraned: - CORRECT ANSWERSIf the monitor has been out of
service for several weeks, if the calibration procedure fails, if error codes indicate a problem

perpendicular to that surface
Gas is defined as - CORRECT ANSWERSA phase of matter
In the gas phase, the atoms or molecules basically move - CORRECT ANSWERSRandomly
Liquids change to a gas at - CORRECT ANSWERStheir respective boiling points
Hydraulics is a branch of science and engineering concerned with the mechanical properties of -
CORRECT ANSWERSLiquids
When applying pressure to a fluid, the pressure is exerted - CORRECT ANSWERSIn all directions equally
,A mechanical gauge is used when measuring gas pressure in a sealed container. For all common
pressure gauges, the pressure indicated on the gauge is - CORRECT ANSWERSLess than absolute
pressure because gauges (and gauge pressures) ignore the ambient (barometric) pressure around us.
They ony measure the extra pressure in the container.
Absolute pressure can be defined as - CORRECT ANSWERSThe amount of pressure within the sealed
vessel + the amount of pressure outside the sealed vessel
Absolute pressure can also be defined as - CORRECT ANSWERSGauge pressure + atmosphere, total
pressure and,true pressure.
The barometric pressure in Denver (elevation 5000 ft) is less than barometric pressure at sea level -
CORRECT ANSWERSTrue

To convert ATA to PSI - CORRECT ANSWERSsubtract 1, then multiply by 14.7
To convert FSW to ATA - CORRECT ANSWERSdivide by 33, then add 1

, When applying boyle's Law to the human body, we worry about air-filled spaces being shrunk (or
squeezed) when pressure around the body increases. This particular type of damage is known as. -
CORRECT ANSWERSBarotrauma
Boyle's Equation is - CORRECT ANSWERSP1xV1= P2xV2

Gay-Lussac's law is about - CORRECT ANSWERSTemperature-pressure relationship
According to Gay-Lussac's law, the temperature in a rigid container, like a scuba tank or a hyperbaric
chamber, will______ when the pressure increases (assuming the volume remains constant) - CORRECT

increasing the pressure in the chamber, the patient is likely to - CORRECT ANSWERSComplain of being
hot
Gay-Lussac's Law (in the hyperbaric chamber) is important to understand because when we start
decreasing the pressure in the chamber, the patient is likely to - CORRECT ANSWERSComplain of being
cold
