How can a scuba-diver breath underwater?
From a regulator attached to a scuba tank.
Why scuba diver wear oxygen tank?
so they can breath underwater
How is the frog like a scuba diver?
Well, it needs oxygen like a human scuba diver but it lasts a pretty long time underwater just like a human would if he used an oxygen tank.
A diver uses it to help him breathe while under water?
aqualung, snorkle, SCUBA tank
What does a diver use to breathe underwater?
A SCUBA (self-contained underwater breathing apparatus) tank
What has gas pressure?
Anything pressurised with gas - an auto tire for example, or a scuba diver's air tank.
What type of gas is in a scuba diver tank?
Air...Sometimes Have Abit Of Oxygen In..But Most Of The Time Just Normal Air.
What does a diver use to help them breathe underwater?
The diver uses an air tank, which is a tank filled with compressed air. It has a hose that goes from the tank to the mouth, which is held in the mouth by a 'mouth piece'. The tank has a regulator that allows the pressure in the tank to be regulated down for normal breathing.
What do you call a person who works underwater?
With a tube = Snorkling With an air tank = SCUBA With a tube and metal helment = Hard Hat Diving.
Do you need to be a certified diver to have a dive air tank filled?
no
Why do you need oxygen cylinders when you go scuba diving?
The simple answer is ... you don't. A majority of scuba dives use compressed air in the cylinders. Therefore you don't need "oxygen" cylinders. HOWEVER, if you are a diver that is diving on Nitrox, in which divers change the amount of oxygen vs nitrogen in their air, then your tank needs to be "oxygen clean" because you are putting oxygen in first, then nitrogen.
Do you need a mermaid tail mono fin to swim?
Monofins can have advantages in swimming efficiency for freediving. Monofins are also commonly used in underwater orienteering, a scuba based sport where fast swimming is essential. However, divers in this sport hold the scuba tank in their hands in front of them, not in a harness on their back like a recreational scuba diver. When the tank is worn on the diver's back, it interferes with the traditional monofin's function in a way that tends to negate the fin's advantages. Furthermore, a traditional monofin will induce body pitching that will sometimes result in the diver getting hit on the back of the head by the tank valve. A new type of monofin that uses a hydrofoil instead of the traditional flexible fin blade has succeeded in solving these issues and can be used with standard scuba equipment. Little to no body-pitching, and very efficient thrust production solve the monofin issues with scuba and provide advantages over bi-fins for swimming speed and reduced air consumption. See here the DOL-Fin X-15 monofin being used with scuba. See the related link for further information.
