• Burning Liquid Evaporating Vapour Explosion

• Blast Level Energy Vapour Event

• Basic Liquid Explosion Vapour Expansion

The most common industrial gases involved in explosions are:

A dust explosion occurs when:

• Only large particles are suspended

• A combustible dust is dispersed in air and ignited

• Only liquid fuels are involved

• Temperature is below flash point

Which is a preventive measure against explosions in industries?

• Increasing dust concentration

• Allowing gas leakage

Disaster management cycle includes which stages?

• Mitigation, Preparedness, Response, Recovery

• Planning, Execution, Audit, Control

• Rescue, Training, Regulation, Disposal

• Warning, Explosion, Control, Relief

An example of a man-made disaster is:

• Flood

• Earthquake

• Chemical spill

• Cyclone

The main objective of disaster management is:

• Eliminate disasters completely

• Minimize loss of life and property

• Increase industrial productivity

• Avoid safety inspections

The national disaster management authority (NDMA) in India was established in:

• 1985

• 1995

• 2005

• 2015

In disaster management, mitigation refers to:

• Immediate rescue operations

• Long-term measures to reduce disaster risk

• Evacuation after disaster

• Financial compensation
