The deeper you go, the more air you breathe with every breath. If you ascend to a shallower depth, you will consume your air less quickly. The deeper you go, the faster you breathe your air. With your existing knowledge of diving you know:

Find the pressure at the depth given in the question.īefore we start, there is a table you need to be able to write down on the scrap paper you are given in the exam. Do not focus on the numbers yet, leave your calculator alone! Based on your conclusions, decide if you should be multiplying, which will make the number bigger, or dividing to get a smaller number. Using your diving knowledge, think about the answer you would expect in general terms. Find the unit of measurement that the question is asking about, and take the number in the question that is in that unit.

There are four simple steps to answering most of the physics questions the come up in a Divemaster or Instructor exam that requires calculation.

I will also start by focusing on questions where pressure is the key component and then look at other topics.

Later parts will use the same fundamentals to answer more complicated questions. _ _ Student SignatureĭECOMPRESSION THEORY AND THE RECREATIONAL DIVE PLANNER AIn Part 1, I start with the basics and EASY questions.
