What is Tidal volume? Find out the Tidal volume (approximate value) for a healthy human in an hour. |
|
Answer» Tidal volume is the volume of air inspired or expired during normal respiration. It is about 6000 to 8000 mL of air per minute. The hourly tidal volume for a healthy human can be calculated as: Tidal volume = 6000 to 8000 mL/minute Tidal volume in an hour = 6000 to 8000 mL `xx` (60 min) `=3.6xx10^(5)` mL to `4.8xx 10^(5)` mL` Therefore, the hourly tidal volume for a healthy human is approximately 3.6 `xx 10^(5)` mL to `4.8xx10^(5)` mL |
