S-130 Firefighter Training Already Passed

Rate of Speed (ROS) {Ans: Fire spread is simply the movement of the fire. 1 ft. (0.3 m)/minute = 1 chain/hour 10 ft. (3 m)/minute = 10 chains/hour}Solid Stream Nozzle {Ans: Choose this nozzle when you are using a compressed air foam system (CAFS). You're a smart firefighter and you know you can apply compressed air foam with an adjustable fog nozzle. But with that solid stream nozzle you've got there, you'll get the greatest amount of reach and accuracy}Combination Forester Nozzle (Twin Tip) {Ans: It has two separate discharge orifices—one is a solid-stream, and the other produces a spray pattern. Depending on how you position the shutoff control handle: The nozzle directs water through the solid-stream orifice. The nozzle directs water through the spray-stream orifice. No water flows at all. The downside of the twin tip is that it provides very low flow, and the spray orifice doesn't produce an effective water screen to protect you in case of a flare-up. Because of its limited output, use this nozzle for mop-up only, not for wildland fire attack.}Fire Shelter {Ans: Aluminized tent carried by firefighters offering personal protection by means of reflecting radiant heat and providing
