As long as he wants if he has enough gas to do the required decompression. But if you are asking what the no-stop time limit is, it doesn't exists since any dive to 100 meters (328 feet) requires mandatory decompression.

How long can you stay at 55 meters underwater using SCUBA?
A diver can always stay as long as they want if they have enough gas to breath and do any required decompression. But if you are asking what the time limit is on air without having any required decompression time, the answer would be about 5 minutes which includes your descent time or about 3 minutes on the bottom.
How much time does a scuba diver spend under water?
It depends on how deep the diver goes, and what air blend the diver is breathing. There are dive tables that state how long a diver can stay at a certain depth before requiring decompression. The basic recreational diver typically breathes either air or Nitrox. There are separate dives tables for air and Nitrox.
Explain the advantages of being neutrally buoyant when you are a scuba diver.?
You do not float to the surface nor do you sink- you stay at the level you swim to.
How long has human stayed underwater?
Without breathing, the world record is 22min With air bottles (scuba diver) or in a submarine you can of course stay longer. In a submarine when you have enough supplies, you can stay virtually forever under water.
While boating you see a red flag with a white diagonal stripe What does this flag mean?
A diver is underwater in the area. Stay at least 100 ft away.
How long can muskrats stay under water?
15 minutes
How long can a diver stay down at 17 meters in pressure group g?
It seems like you know the answer, but it is 34 minutes (from 18 meters).
How do scuba divers find out how long they can stay at a certain depth?
we use a chart for that. which helps us calculate how long we can stay in a certain depth. dive planning
How does scuba gear work?
Scuba stands for Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus. It uses two regulators, one on the bottle which takes the volume of compressed air to a manageable rate, then the second regulator takes the air to a breathable rate so the diver can breath the air comfortable. The other part of diving is a divers buoyancy. This is controlled by using a hose which comes from the first stage regulator into a vest called a B.C. (Buoyancy Compensator). The goal of this device is to get you, the diver as close as possible to becoming neutrally buoyant (you don't go up or down, you just stay in the middle). However once neutral buoyancy is achieved it can still be affected through your breathing rate. Gregory L. Las Vegas, NV (D.I.T.)
What is it called when you are boating and you see a red flag with a white diagonal stripe?
A float with a red flag with a diagonal white stripe is the symbol for "Divers Down"; Scuba divers are underwater in this area. Be cautious in the area of the float, because the divers will surface nearby.
How far do you stay away from diver down flag in the water in Texas?
100'
How long can a diver dive in 1 day?
It depends on many variables, such as the time the diver stays at a particular depth, the temperature, level of diver exertion, diver's physiology, etc, etc. Dive tables or a dive computer is used to calculate how long it is safe for the diver to stay submerged. The primary limitation on dive duration/depth during a day is how much Nitrogen the diver has absorbed into his or her tissues. Exceeding the safe limits can cause decompression illness. These limits are only rough guidelines however, as some people are at higher/lower risk for decompression illness based on their physiology, level of heath and fitness, and other factors.
