Question 917 Deck Safety
70% to passA combination or all-purpose nozzle produces _______________.
A
a solid stream and fog
B
a solid stream and foam
C
low-velocity fog only
D
a solid stream only
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) a solid stream and fog. A combination or all-purpose nozzle is designed to produce both a solid stream of water for longer-range firefighting and a low-velocity fog pattern for closer-range fires or for cooling and protecting exposures. This versatility allows the firefighter to adjust the nozzle based on the specific firefighting needs. The other options are incorrect because a combination nozzle does not produce only a solid stream (option D), only low-velocity fog (option C), or a solid stream and foam (option B), which would require a different type of nozzle.
