Safety Day Quiz 2020
Questions and Answers
- 1.
Which of the following extinguisher is suitable in case of fire in computer or record room
- A.
CO2
- B.
DCP
- C.
FOAM
- D.
Water
Correct Answer
A. CO2Explanation
CO2 (carbon dioxide) is the suitable extinguisher for fire in a computer or record room because it is a clean agent that does not leave any residue. CO2 works by displacing oxygen, which is necessary for combustion, and suffocating the fire. This is particularly important in computer or record rooms where water or foam extinguishers can cause damage to the sensitive electronic equipment and valuable documents. DCP (dry chemical powder) extinguishers are also effective for electrical fires, but they can leave a residue that may damage the equipment.Rate this question:

Oxygen level in confined space shall not be less than
- A.
10.0%
- B.
21.0%
- C.
19.5%
- D.
79.0%
Correct Answer
C. 19.5%Explanation
The correct answer is 19.5%. In a confined space, it is important to maintain a minimum oxygen level to ensure the safety of individuals. Oxygen levels below 19.5% can lead to oxygen deficiency, which can cause dizziness, confusion, and even loss of consciousness. Therefore, it is crucial to have an oxygen level of at least 19.5% in a confined space to prevent any potential health hazards.Rate this question:

Threshold limit value (TLV) for carbon monoxide is________ppm
Correct Answer
50Explanation
The threshold limit value (TLV) for carbon monoxide is 50 ppm. This means that exposure to carbon monoxide should not exceed 50 parts per million in the air, as it can be harmful to human health. Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas that is produced by the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels. It can be found in car exhaust fumes, faulty heating systems, and other sources. High levels of carbon monoxide can lead to symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, nausea, and even death. Therefore, it is important to monitor and control carbon monoxide levels to ensure a safe environment.Rate this question:

While putting U clamps in wire rope, the saddle portions lies in the live end of wire rope.
- A.
YES
- B.
NO
Correct Answer
A. YESExplanation
When putting U clamps in a wire rope, the saddle portions of the U clamps should indeed be placed on the live end of the wire rope.

The voltage of electric light used in confined space should not exceed
- A.
12V
- B.
24V
- C.
220V
- D.
230V
Correct Answer
B. 24VExplanation
In confined spaces, there is a higher risk of electrical accidents due to limited ventilation and potential for flammable gases or vapors. Therefore, it is recommended to use lower voltage electric lights to minimize the risk of sparking or ignition. A voltage of 24V is safer compared to higher voltages like 220V or 230V, as it reduces the likelihood of electrical hazards and potential accidents in confined spaces.Rate this question:

The figure in "TON" written on cranes/slings etc. is
- A.
Safe Working Load
- B.
Breaking Load
- C.
Safety Factor
- D.
None of the above
Correct Answer
A. Safe Working LoadExplanation
The figure in "TON" written on cranes/slings etc. refers to the Safe Working Load. This is the maximum weight that the equipment can safely lift or carry without causing damage or compromising safety. It is determined by considering factors such as the strength and stability of the equipment, the condition of the materials being lifted, and any environmental factors that may affect the lifting operation. The Safe Working Load is typically calculated to ensure a margin of safety, taking into account the weight of the load, the capacity of the equipment, and any potential dynamic forces that may be encountered during lifting.Rate this question:

Which of the following permit is required to work inside vessels/tanks
- A.
Work at Height Permit
- B.
Hot Work Permit
- C.
Confined Space Permit
- D.
LOTOTO Permit
Correct Answer
C. Confined Space PermitExplanation
A confined space permit is required to work inside vessels/tanks because working in such spaces poses specific risks and hazards. Confined spaces often have limited entry and exit points, poor ventilation, and the potential for hazardous substances or lack of oxygen. Therefore, a permit is necessary to ensure that proper safety measures are in place, such as proper ventilation, monitoring of atmospheric conditions, and emergency rescue procedures. This permit helps to protect workers from potential dangers and ensures that they are aware of the specific risks associated with working in confined spaces.Rate this question:

What is Safe rating (sensitivity) of ELCB/RCCB used in Plants/Projects.
- A.
20 mA
- B.
25 mA
- C.
30 mA
- D.
40 mA
Correct Answer
C. 30 mAExplanation
The safe rating or sensitivity of an ELCB/RCCB used in Plants/Projects is 30 mA. This means that the device will trip and disconnect the power supply when a leakage current of 30 mA or above is detected. This sensitivity level is important for ensuring the safety of electrical systems and preventing electric shocks or fires caused by electrical faults.Rate this question:

What is the correct angle (in degree) of protection of a ladder to its base
- A.
60 degree
- B.
45 degree
- C.
75 degree
- D.
85 degree
Correct Answer
C. 75 degreeExplanation
The correct angle of protection for a ladder to its base is 75 degrees. This angle ensures stability and prevents the ladder from tipping over while in use. A larger angle would make the ladder too steep and increase the risk of falling backwards, while a smaller angle would make the ladder too shallow and increase the risk of sliding outwards. Therefore, a 75-degree angle strikes the right balance between stability and usability.Rate this question:

In case of an emergency, all employees/workers should reach to
- A.
HODs Office
- B.
Nearest Assembly Point
- C.
Safety Office
- D.
HR Office
Correct Answer
B. Nearest Assembly PointExplanation
In case of an emergency, it is important for all employees/workers to reach the nearest assembly point. This is because assembly points are designated areas where individuals can gather safely during emergencies, such as fires or natural disasters. By reaching the nearest assembly point, employees can ensure their safety and enable emergency personnel to account for everyone and provide necessary assistance.Rate this question:

In case of Producer Gas leakage, it is preferred to run in the direction which is
- A.
Across the wind direction
- B.
Against the wind direction
- C.
Vertically
- D.
None of the above
Correct Answer
B. Against the wind directionExplanation
When there is a leakage of producer gas, running against the wind direction is preferred. This is because running against the wind helps to disperse the gas and prevent it from accumulating in one area, reducing the risk of ignition or explosion. Running across the wind direction or vertically may not be as effective in dispersing the gas and could potentially lead to a hazardous situation. Therefore, running against the wind direction is the safest option in case of producer gas leakage.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
B. Hearing LossExplanation
Hearing loss is the correct answer because it is a notifiable disease. Notifiable diseases are those that are required by law to be reported to public health authorities. This is typically done to monitor the spread of the disease and take appropriate public health measures to prevent further transmission. Hearing loss can be caused by various factors such as genetics, aging, exposure to loud noise, and certain medical conditions, and it is important to track and address cases of hearing loss for public health purposes.Rate this question:

While lifting material we should keep our back
- A.
Horizontal to ground
- B.
Inclined
- C.
Straight
- D.
Oblique
Correct Answer
C. StraightExplanation
When lifting material, it is important to keep our back straight. This is because maintaining a straight back helps to distribute the weight evenly and reduces the strain on the back muscles. It also helps to maintain proper alignment of the spine and prevents the risk of injury. Lifting with a straight back allows for better control and stability, ensuring a safer lifting technique.Rate this question:
