Is the oxygen and nitrogen in a scuba tank considered a heterogeneous?
I would think so, because there are two of them mixed together. Air in a scuba tank or anywhere else should be heterogeneous. A scuba tank filled with either oxygen or nitrogen would be homogeneous.
How do scuba divers sink if they have tanks of compressed air on their backs?
Scuba divers use weights to sink during a dive because the air tanks on their backs make them buoyant. By adjusting the amount of weight, divers can achieve neutral buoyancy underwater. This allows them to control their depth and movement throughout the dive.
What buoys mark scuba divers diving?
The dive flag(s) that alert surface traffic that there are divers below (also sometimes the "code alpha") can be one or two flags. The First flag you would always see (if a flag is flown at all) is the square, red flag with a diagonal white stripe down the center. One you may see accompany the red/ white flag is a blue and white striped pendant.
When was the scuba created?
The first record of "breathing underwater" is traced back to 100BC and the Egyptians who used goat bladders to dive under the water. The two hose SCUBA regulator has is beginnings with Jacques Cousteau and the US Divers regulators in the late 1960's. The modern SCUBA apparatus is tied to developents in the late 1970's in Australia where a local developed two stage regulation, the forerunner of modern Poseidon rigs. This is the industry standard today.
Where can someone get 'Odlaw Binoculars' for deep sea divers?
at the far left corner. go up a bit two girls will be scuba-diving off a rock in green and white and red and white clothes. there next to the right ones foot.
How close is the film Open Water to real life?
The film is, in fact, based on a real life event. Two scuba divers were left behind when the dive boat that took a group out went back without them. They were stranded in waters inhabited by sharks.
What are two uses for oxygen therapy equipment?
There is high concentrated oxygen treatments, or there is the standard oxygen treatments. The high concentrated is almost pure oxygen, people like doctors and scuba divers breathe pure oxygen almost every day.
What type of verbal is to scuba dive?
It is very hard to, but you can. You mostly communicate with hand signals in scuba diving, however. There are expensive tools to communicate with a type of 2-way radio underwater.AdditionActually you can. There are several ways. One is through bone conduction, If you place your chin on the other divers head and then talk, you can be understood. If you are close to their ear, you can also just talk. And still another way is if you have a glove, you can take it off and fill it with air and then talk into the glove. Of course the closer you are to their ear the easier they can understand you. If you are wearing hoods, these methods are more difficult to be understood.

What is a scuba regulator designed to do?
A scuba regulator is designed to provide air to a diver via a demand valve system in a regulated and safe fashion. A Scuba Regulator consists of two stages - a "first" and "second" stage. The first stage which attaches to a scuba tank by use of either a din or yoke valve, reduces the pressure of the air passing through it to an intermediate pressure slightly above the surrounding pressure at whatever depth of water the diver is at. The part of the regulator that is in the divers mouth is called the second stage, and is a "demand valve" which gives air to the diver each time he inhales. On exhalation the valve closes and the exhaled air is released as bubbles from the exhaust ports built into the bottom of the second stage. The fist stage of the regulator also has connections for a high pressure hose which is connected to a Pressure Gauge (showing the remaining air pressure in the scuba tank), one or two low pressure hoses to attach to the divers buoyancy control device and drysuit and an extra second stage which is used for emergency situations for use by another diver. All regulators are designed with a fail-safe mechanism which means that if they suffer any technical problem, the regulator will "free flow" allowing the diver to return to the surface or to an alternate air supply safely.
What are two practical applications of boyle's law?
Two practical applications of Boyle's law include scuba diving equipment, where changes in pressure and volume affect the amount of air that divers can carry in their tanks, and in medical devices like ventilators which utilize changes in pressure and volume to assist patients with breathing difficulties.
