tidal volume = 500cm sq. vital capacity = 4000cm sq.
No, vital capacity is the maximum volume a person can exhale after taking the deepest breath that they can
The volume not included in the vital capacity is the residual volume (RV). Residual volume is the amount of air that remains in the lungs after a maximal exhalation and cannot be voluntarily expelled. Vital capacity, which consists of tidal volume, inspiratory reserve volume, and expiratory reserve volume, measures the maximum amount of air a person can exhale after a deep breath, excluding the residual volume.
A surface area would be vital for determining volume
This is clearly lifted from some test paper, omitting the vital diagram. The volume of a rectangular prism is the area of the base multiplied by the height. Same for a cube.
