NOISE definitions
Frequency
Frequency freq determines pitch which is that attributes of an auditory sensation in which sounds may be ordered on a scale extending from low to high. High pitch more dangerous
NOISE definitions intensity
Intensity: relative loudness of the noise expressed in decibels . This will play a large part in deterring the hazard louder mo bad
Noise definitions
Nature of noise
Continuous or intermittent . Steady or series of impact or impulses
Noise definitions
Exposure duration
Longer the exposure greater be damage to the hearing mech. Exposure duration is in terms of time weight average, this takes into account intensity and duration
Two types of noise?
Steady and impulse

Amount of water necessary to sustain a soldier varies on?
Season of year
Geographic location
Tactical situation
Define irritant give examples
Cause inflammation of mucous membranes examples are : sulfer, acetic acid, formaldehyde , acids ozone oxides nitrogen
Asphyxiants with example
Deprive respiratory of oxygen, don’t damage the lungs, most simple asphyxiants are gasses. Example: nitrogen carbon dioxide helium methane ethane
Anesthetics with examples
Depressing effect on nervous system particularly the brain.
Systemic poisens
Cause damage to internal organs such as liver kidney central nervous system or the cardiovascular system.
What percentage of all water ends up as waste?
80
Prevention of water borne disease
They perform this by
1) issuing individual water dissinfectents
2) conducting inspections
3) enforcing simple rules of water discipline
Rules of water discipline are
Rink water from approved sources
Prevent water waste
Protect water sources with good sanitary practices
Responsibilities of field sanitation team
1) water cans and trailers are filled at water distribution point
2) water cans and trailers arrive in unit area
3) directed to do so
Disease transmission
Transmission of arthropod or vector borne disease represents the most the most substantial and continuous non combat threat to soldiers during deployments. Historically
Myiasis
Invasion of tissue with the large of maggots of flies

Explain right and up
Right to the north south that proceeds the desired point. First 2 sets is the right reading.
Then use east west grid lines and move UP
6 digit grid gets you how many meters
100 meters
8 digit grid gets you
10 meters
Read this grid coordinate

14 North South
84 east west
Magnetic north
North magnetic pole
Grid north
Vertical lines on maps
True north
A line from any point on earths surface to North Pole
Explain converting grid to magnetic and vice versa
1) to convert magnetic azimuth to grid az subtract GM angle
2) To convert a grid azimuth to magnetic ADD GM angle
Why is GM angle important
Azimuthal translated between map and compass will be in error if not adjusted
Index Line
Zero elevation every fith line is a heavier line each index line is numbered
Intermediate lines
Between index normaly four in between index lines
Supplementary
Resemble dashes show changes in elevation of at least one half the contour interval found where there is little change in elevation
