What is the greatest limitation in using the 100 meters method of range determination?
- A.
  
  Observer proficiency requires constant practice
- B.
  
  SF member must pace the range to see if his estimation is correct
- C.
  
  Underestimating sloping ground gives the illusion of a greater distance
- D.
  
  Accuracy is directly related to amount of terrain visible to the observor
Correct Answer
D. Accuracy is directly related to amount of terrain visible to the observor

Explanation
The greatest limitation in using the 100 meters method of range determination is that accuracy is directly related to the amount of terrain visible to the observer. This means that if the observer has a limited view of the terrain, it can be difficult for them to accurately estimate the range. The more terrain that is visible, the easier it is for the observer to gauge the distance accurately.

How does the observore use off center vision when viewing an object during limited visibility?
- A.
  
  Look 5 degrees above, below or to either side rather then directily at it
- B.
  
  Look 10 degrees above, below or to either side rather then directily at it
- C.
  
  Look 15 degrees above, below rather then directily at it
- D.
  
  Look 20 degrees to either side rather then directily at it
Correct Answer
B. Look 10 degrees above, below or to either side rather then directily at it

Explanation
During limited visibility, the observer uses off center vision by looking 10 degrees above, below, or to either side of the object instead of directly at it. This allows the observer to utilize their peripheral vision and maximize their field of view, increasing the chances of detecting the object even in low visibility conditions. By looking slightly off center, the observer can gather more visual information and enhance their situational awareness.

When burying the TMS magnetic sensor, how deep perpendicular to the avenue of approach must you bury the magnetic sensor head?
- A.
  
  2 to 4 inches
- B.
  
  4 to 6 inches
- C.
  
  6 to 8 inches
- D.
  
  8 to 10 inches
Correct Answer
C. 6 to 8 inches

Explanation
The TMS magnetic sensor is used to detect the presence of vehicles on the road. Burying the magnetic sensor head too shallow may result in damage or inaccurate readings, while burying it too deep may reduce its sensitivity. Therefore, burying the magnetic sensor head at a depth of 6 to 8 inches perpendicular to the avenue of approach ensures optimal performance and accurate detection of vehicles passing over it.
