(Answer to Q. 1)  ANS: B
Amount of time left in cylinder = (cylinder pressure  cylinder factor)/flow rate of gas (li-ters/minute). G factor = 2.41. Time to use 2000 psig = (2000  2.42)/5 = 964 minutes/60 = 16 hours. 2000 psig /16 hours = X psig/6 hours. X = 750 psig will be used in 6 hours at 5 L/min.

(Answer to Q. 2)  ANS: C
The reservoir stores a mixture of liquid and gaseous oxygen. The vaporizer acts as a heat ex-changer where heat is absorbed from the environment and used to warm the liquid oxygen to room temperature, thus forming gaseous oxygen.

(Answer to Q. 3)  ANS: D
Amount of time left in cylinder = (cylinder pressure  cylinder factor)/flow rate of gas (li-ters/minute). (2000  0.28)/4 = 140 minutes to use up 2000 psig. Therefore, 2000 psig/140 min = X psig/1 minute X = 14.3 psig/min  45 minutes = 642.8 psig.

(Answer to Q. 4)  ANS: D
Amount of time left in cylinder = (cylinder pressure  cylinder factor)/flow rate of gas (li-ters/minute). E size factor = 0.28. A simple mask should run at a minimum of 5 L/min. There-fore, (1600  0.28)/5 L/min = 448/5 = 89.6 minutes.

(Answer to Q. 5)  ANS: C
Amount of time left in cylinder = (cylinder pressure  cylinder factor)/flow rate of gas (li-ters/minute). K factor = 3.14. Time to use 800 psi = (800  3.14)/7 = 358.8 min/60 = 5 hours 59 minutes.

(Answer to Q. 6)  ANS: B
Amount of time left in cylinder = (cylinder pressure  cylinder factor)/flow rate of gas (li-ters/minute). E factor = 0.28. Time to use 900 psig = (900  0.28)/10 = 25 minutes.

(Answer to Q. 7)  ANS: C
Amount of time left in cylinder = (cylinder pressure  cylinder factor)/flow rate of gas (li-ters/minute). G size cylinder factor = 2.41. Amount of time = (1450  2.41)/5 = 698.9 minutes/60 = 11 hours 39 minutes.
