How do you calculate tidal volume in a cat?
Tidal volume is the total amount of air in your lungs that is inhaled/exhaled at one point. Tidal volume is found by using a machine to calculate it. Or, it is:Insiratory reserve volume+expiratory reserve volume+tidal volume+residual volume.REVISIONYour definition of tidal volume is correct...it is the amount of air that moves in or out of the lungs during normal inspiration or expiration, but the equation you gave (IRV + Vt +ERV + RV) is for Total Lung Capacity.I don't believe that there is an equation to calculate tidal volume. It can be calculated, however, by subtracting your average ERV (expiratory reserve volume) from your average EC (expiratory capacity). Using a spirometer, perform the procedure to get your expiratory capacity. Do this 3 times and figure the average. Then perform the procedure to get your expiratory reserve volume and repeat 3 times to figure your average. Then, as I mentioned in the 1st line of this paragraph, subtract your average ERV from your average EC.
How do you measure tidal volume?
have someone count the number of times you inhalein 30 seconds repeat 2 more times calculate the average number of breathes multiply the average number of breathes by 2
What is the air taken into or expelled from your lungs?
The amount will vary upon the type of breathing we are doing. During relaxed breathing or tidal volume can be only a small portion of the entire lung capacity, and at vital capacity is the measure of the total amount of air that can forcibly be moved in and out of the lungs in one breath with the additional help of muscles; abdominals, intercostals, pectoralis minor, and scalenes. An average adult at rest breathes in and exhales out about 500 mL of air 12 to 20 times in a minute. Women typically breathe about the same rate with a slightly lower volume. Children take more breaths per minute but the tidal volume is lower.
If the volume of a confined gas is expanded to four times the original volume while its temperature remains constant what change will be observed?
The pressure is reduced four times.
A person has a minute ventilatin of 6 liters per minute 6000ml if the person had a tidal volume of 500 ml how many times must they inhale this volume each minute?
12
Do the lungs have a high or low surface area to volume ratio?
High - each branch inside the lungs sub-divides many, many times. This dramatically increases the surface area in relation to the actual volume.
How does the mass change when the volume is increased two times?
When volume is increased two times, mass is also doubled. This is because density of a particular material always remains constant, (d=m/v), so to keep density constant, volume increase is balanced by mass increase.
What equals density times volume?
I think height times width.
Is it possible for a balloon with an initial pressure of 200.0kPa to naturally expand four times its initial volume when the temperature remains constant and atmospheric pressure is 101.3kPa?

If the length of a rectangular prism is doubled its width is tripled and its height remains the same what is the volume of the new rectangular prism?
just did this on castle learning the answer is six times
How does the tidal volume increase during exercise?
When exercising you Tial Volume increase because your breathing at a faster rate and your muscles are using up the oxygen at a quicker rate hense a need for more oxygen hense you body increasing the Tidal Volume to allow more oxygen to be consumed and meet the muscles oxygen demands.
