    Default LASER IQ-part 2 keys to quizzes- discussion about questions etc

    I saw a need to run this thread with discussions on some questions and our own key to the answers and not many give those w/o registering.
    so PLZ

    ANSWERS IN THIS THREAD -

    new quizzes in the the other thread if you find any- Test Laser IQ- I have several more ready to post

    here:

    http://www.photonlexicon.com/forums/...aser-safety-IQ
    ++++++++++++++++++++++

    I reposted the quiz to may this easier to understand- but once in each thread is plenty IMO.

    LaserQuiz #`1 ( out of thousands)

    here a pretty good one-- i had to think a bit on 3 or 4- i predict I will have missed 2- 3 or less.

    NOTE: In this and some other quizzes they may NOT have the choices marked A-B-C-D so if these are not there just consider A to be th top answer and D the last/bottom one listed.


    Newest quiz I am calling it LQ#1 no answers given-w/o registering.

    as noted- almost none of these quizzes is geared towards us (laser shows)

    so some questions may have different correct answers- IMO if we can grade our own with 99% accuracy who cares about the unclear ones like--

    What is not true about protective goggles?

    A goggles eliminate the possibility of eye damage
    B nearly all goggles do a poor job of protection against visible light
    C goggles must always be worn when working with lasers
    D goggles should have wavelength and OD specified by manufacturer


    In a lab they very well be required to waer goggles inside the l laser on OR off- IDKFS

    BUt as was related at LSO by Greg M

    karl 'laserwiz' got into a bad deal in Arizona over eye ware- So IMO--for all on show crew at least have them on you--

    so I choose 'A' second guess B.

    ..
    sorry to hear the details-- worse than I thought--

    THANKS Karl for all that great info..

    We may ask you to help with the very few 'iffy' questions on these basic quizzes I have been posting. At most there are only a few in question in each quiz(ignoring the ones about medical etc)

    Its clear that the LSO is not a one time thing- there will always be new info to find-& learn ---at times you need to 'weed out' the parts not at all for lasershows-
    but imo the majority of safety info applies to all. Joining ILDA was on my bucket list- and I must be doing something right as I won a years+ worth at SELEM 2014.

    I cant agree more with Karl on the great things ILDA/Patrick are doing. Same for Greg.. great guys.
    I will continue to place new quizzes when I find them- but as I wrote--they don't give us the answers.

    IIRC I have posted in this thread my answers to all 'those' quizzes-

    hoping one of you with more knowledge will 'grade' me.

    Unless I do it soonerI may try at SELEM2015 to re-take the exam- but may not be able to stay over to Monday night to re-take the class again.

    no worries I am >ready now. I will do some 'arm twisting' of my many Texas friends and get two to carpool and take the class.
