3. Where should the Emergency fire pump be located?

A. Where the steering gear is.

B. Inside engine room

C. Outside engine room

D. At the emergency station


Advertisement

Correct Answer
C. Outside engine room

Explanation
The emergency fire pump should be located outside the engine room. This is because in the
event of a fire, the engine room may become inaccessible or unsafe to enter. Placing the
emergency fire pump outside the engine room ensures that it can still be accessed and
operated even if the engine room is compromised. This allows for a quick response to a fire
emergency and helps to prevent the spread of fire throughout the vessel.

5. What is the purpose of a Die (a hand tool)?

A. To smooth surface.

B. To start a messed-up engine.

C. To make internal threads.

D. To make external threads.


Advertisement

Correct Answer
D. To make external threads.

Explanation
A die is a hand tool used to create external threads on a workpiece. It is typically used in
conjunction with a tap to create threaded holes or bolts. By rotating the die around the
workpiece, it cuts into the material and forms the desired thread pattern. This allows for the
creation of threaded connections that can be used for various purposes such as joining two
parts together or securing objects in place. Therefore, the purpose of a die is to make
external threads, making it the correct answer.

Correct Answer
C. Timber

Explanation
To lift a spar through a hatch, a timber hitch is used. A timber hitch is a type of knot that is
commonly used to secure a rope to a cylindrical object, such as a spar. It is known for its
ability to grip tightly and securely, making it ideal for lifting heavy objects. By using a timber
hitch, the rope can be securely attached to the spar, allowing it to be lifted through the hatch
without slipping or coming loose.

The size of Manila rope is measured by its diameter in millimeters. Diameter refers to the
distance across the rope when it is cut in half and measured from one side to the other. By
measuring the diameter in millimeters, we can determine the thickness or width of the rope,
which is an important factor in determining its strength and suitability for various
applications.

8. What does CPU stand for?

A. Central Power Unit

B. Central Processing Unit

C. Created Power Unit

D. None of these
Advertisement

Correct Answer
B. Central Processing Unit

Explanation
The correct answer is Central Processing Unit. The CPU is the primary component of a
computer system that carries out the instructions of a computer program by performing
basic arithmetic, logical, control, and input/output (I/O) operations. It is often referred to as
the "brain" of the computer as it interprets and executes instructions from the computer's
memory. The other options, Central Power Unit and Created Power Unit, do not accurately
represent the acronym CPU and are not commonly used terms in the context of computer
hardware.

10. What danger is involved with the oil-fired boiler?

A. Blowback

B. Overpressure

C. Under pressure

D. Steam leak
Advertisement

Correct Answer
A. Blowback

Explanation
Blowback is the correct answer because it refers to the potential danger of a sudden and
violent reversal of gas flow in the oil-fired boiler. This can occur when there is a malfunction
or blockage in the system, causing the combustion gases to be forced back into the boiler
instead of being properly vented. This can result in an explosion or fire hazard, posing a
significant danger to both the boiler and anyone in the vicinity.
