What is Tidal volume? Find out the Tidal volume (approximate value) for a healthy human in an hour.

Explanation

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
