"Rule of Nines" ✔✔Medical concept, where major body areas are represented by increments of
9%
*For example the head equals 9%
109F ✔✔In hyperthermia, what core body temperature is generally fatal
within minutes unless treated?
4.0 to 10 w.c. ✔✔The typical water column range for gas service lines
4th Amendment ✔✔The amendment concerning search and seizure
*Remember "knocking"
5th Amendment ✔✔The amendment concerning pleading, grand jury and double jeopardy
*Remember "hand over mouth"
6th Amendment ✔✔The amendment concerning speedy trial, impartial, right to counsel, and
face witness
*Remember "point to wrist watch"
Absolute ✔✔The temperature scale based on the lowest possible temperature of absolute zero
Acute ✔✔A type of toxicity exposure that involves a one time exposure at a high level
Advancing ✔✔The burned section of a wildfire that an investigator should enter first in order to
begin examining the wildfire
Aerial Layer ✔✔The layer in wildfire investigations, which begins at six feet above and up and
includes branches, tree moss, and leaves
Ambient Wind ✔✔The factor or force that can potentially overcome the fire's tendency to burn
uphill, and in turn force the fire to burn downhill
Ampacity ✔✔Conductor capacity
Ampere ✔✔Unit of electrical current
Arc ✔✔Luminous electrical discharge across a gap
Arc Mapping ✔✔An electrical analysis that is fundamentally pattern recognition
Arcing ✔✔An electrical event that is typically too brief and localized to be a competent ignition
source
Arson ✔✔From the standpoint of investigative preparation, documentation, and scene control
etc., every fire should be approached as if it is potentially what type of fire?
Arson Motives ✔✔Vandalism, excitement, revenge, crime concealment, profit, extremism, and
pyromania are seven types of what?
ASTM E1618 ✔✔What standard governs evidence collection for accelerant testing?
Auto-ignition Temperature ✔✔The minimum temperature at which combustible substance
ignites without spark or flame
Axisymmetric Plume ✔✔A fire plume in the center of the room with no wall interface
Backdraft ✔✔A low-order explosion that is the result of an oxygen-depleted fire that produces
high concentrations of incomplete combustion products, with a sudden mixture of air into the
accumulated fuels
Battery ✔✔The only source of electricity in a vehicle when the engine is not running
Blast Pressure Front ✔✔The expanding leading edge of explosion reaction, which is primarily
responsible for explosion damage and injuries
BLEVE ✔✔The most frequently encountered mechanical explosion
BLEVE ✔✔An event that occurs when a vessel's contents are liquid and heating causes the
liquid to exceed its boiling point and failure of the vessel occurs
Rapid Boiling ✔✔This is the mechanism in a Mechanical Explosion, along with the expansion
of pressurized gas
