pressure in the lungs forces air to leave the site of gaseous exchange and the diaphragm pushes up forcing the person to exhale.
Exhalation as in breathing out normally is part of your respiratory tidal volume - the volume you use normally, whereas forced exhalation is breathing out more than you need to, your expiratory residual volume.

synonym = a word that means the same or very close to the same thing as another word synonym for exhalation= breathe out let air out
Carbon doixide enters the lungs. The lungs push out the air through the mouth. Please improve this answer for I am not sure if this is detailed enough. Thanks.
Exhalation
c
The diaphragm relaxes during EXHALATION. Your diaphragm flattens when you inhale, creating more space for the lungs to take in more air.
the diaphragm
The act of exhalation itself is caused by the diaphragm relaxing and pushing upward on the lungs, forcing air out of them. This air is loaded with carbon dioxide, a dangerous waste product, so that is eliminated.
The ribs expand during inhalation. This creates negative pressure on the lungs and draws air into them. During exhalation the rib cage gets smaller, compressing the lungs, in a sense, and forcing air out.
Exhalation is a passive action that results from elastic recoil and changes in air pressure. When this happens naturally a portion of air remains within the lungs- residual volume. However when exhalation is forced, that is conscious efforts to expel as much air as possible, many of the residual volume can be forced out of the lungs.

Emphysema
Air is expelled from the alveoli, as well as the lungs in general, during exhalation when the diaphragm relaxes and rises up. This creates pressure on the thoracic cavity, and since there is more air pressure inside than outside, the air is exhaled to relieve the pressure.
The ribs lower during exhalation. During forced exhalation, the quadratus lumborum muscle stabilizes the 12th rib while the internal intercostal muscles and transverse thoracic muscle pull the ribs downward forcefully to decrease the volume of the thorax.
