Introduction
The members of Blue Group Lily, James, Malik, and Makena present to you a power point about a Chapter 1 Overview of Scuba Diving.
Well what’s in Chapter 1 again?
Well in Chapter 1 for example is Buoyancy, Air Pressure, Equalizing, and more!

Buoyancy
Negative
Neutral
Positive
If an objects floats, we call it positively buoyant; if it sinks, we call it negatively buoyant ; and if it neither floats nor sinks , we call it neutrally buoyant.

Air PressureSame air, Smaller

If you take an air volume underwater with you in a flexible container or an an inverted jar, the volume changes proportionately with pressure.

No O-ring, No Diving With no O-ring on a
Scuba tank your regulator will not seal.

Scuba Pressure Gauge
A pressure gauge (or can be known as SPG or “contents gauge”) tells you how much air you have during a dive.
When your pressure gauge is in the red zone be sure to inform your instructor that you are low on air.
