Respiratory volume or respiratory minute volume is the volume of air which can be inhaled or exhaled from a person's lung in one minute.It is normally consider when a person on a ventilator for breathing problem due to sickness or injury. It is calculated by taking the tidal volume( or lung volume ) and multiplying it by the respiratory rate( the number of breaths per minute a person is taking).

What is the equation to measure lung volume?
No equation is possible, lung volume is measured by a machine in to which you breath.
Can you use the spirometer to measure your total lung capacity?
No. A spirometer can be used to measure the volume of breath a person can expire but it is impossible to expire your entire lung capacity. This is due to the "dead space" capacity that remains to stop the collapse of the alveoli. As the alveoli are spherical and lined with mucus if they collapse it would be impossble for them to be filled again and so some air must remain within them. It is, however, possible to estimate someone's total lung capacity from the spirometer reading.
Can you measure volume by milliters?
Yes. You can measure liquid volume in milliliters. A graduated cylinder is used to measure liquid volume in millimeters, mL.
Are kilograms usually used to measure volume?
False. Kilograms measure mass. Liters measure volume.
What is loose measure volume?
In Civil engineering, Loose Measure Volume is the measure of the volume of a material after it has been dug up. In general, it will have a lower density than Bank Measure.
What is the equation to measure lung volume?

What is the pulmonary function test?
Pulmonary function tests are used to diagnose respiratory disorder. Lung volume and lung capacities are measured. Normally the doctor will use an instrument called spirometer to measure various lung volumes. Some of the lung disorder a patient can have are: asthma, and Emphysema.
What does total lung capacity equals?
Total lung volume equals Vital Capacity + Residual Volume.
What do gallons measure?

What is total lung volume?
The average maximum capacity is around 6 liters of air, but when you exhale approximately 1.2 liters stays in your lungs. An easy way to measure this is to take a balloon and take a deep breath, then inflate the balloon as much as you can with just that breath. Measure the resulting diameter of the balloon in centimeters, then use the formula: Volume = (4 / 3)(3.1416)(diameter / 2)^3 Then divide by 1000 to get your lung capacity in liters.
How do you measure lung capacity?
One measure of lung size is called vital capacity and it refers to the amount of air that can be inhaled and exhaled forcibly in one breath.
What is a a beaker used for?
To measure volume
What is lung capacity meant by?
Your total lung capacity is the total volume of the lung after maximum inspiration. (average 6 litres).
The air remaining in the lung after a maximal expiration is the?
residual volume
