The average person breathes 16 times per minute (at rest), inhaling and exhaling half a liter of air each time. How much “hot air” (the air is warmed by the body), in liters, does the average person exhale each day?
--------------
16/min = 960/hour = 23040/day (breaths)
23040 x 0.5 = 11520 liters/day
