Final answer:

The positive-pressure respirators from the options provided are atmosphere-supplying respirator, self-contained breathing apparatus, and powered air-purifying respirator.

Step-by-step explanation:

The positive-pressure respirators from the options provided are:

  1. Atmosphere-supplying respirator
  2. Self-contained breathing apparatus
  3. Powered air-purifying respirator

Positive-pressure respirators work by supplying clean, filtered air to the user, creating a higher pressure inside the mask compared to the surrounding environment. This prevents contaminated air from entering the mask.
