Question 4
Hearing protection is recommended when noise levels exceed 85 - 90 dB (commonly 90 dB as a standard threshold for requiring hearing protection in many workplaces). Among the options, 90 dB (option d) is the correct threshold for when hearing protection should be worn.
When using a wrench, pulling it toward you (Technician A's advice) is safer as pushing it away can lead to loss of control if it slips, and pulling provides better leverage and safety. Pushing a wrench away (Technician B's advice) is less safe. So only Technician A is correct.
Exhaust gases from engines (like in vehicles) contain carbon monoxide (CO), which is deadly in high concentrations. Carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) is not as deadly in exhaust - related high concentrations in the same way, hydrocarbons (HC) and oxides of nitrogen ($NO_x$) have different toxicological profiles and CO is the main deadly exhaust gas in high concentration here.
