Hi Bramha,
Before finding the heart rate of the person, we have to understand the relation between these three terms.
1. Heart Rate - It is the total number of beats per minute or bpm.
2. Cardiac Output - It is the volume of the blood pumped by the heart every minute.
3. Stroke Volume - It is the volume of the blood pumped by the ventricles every beat.
In short, the relation between these three will be, Cardiac Output (CO) = Heart Rate (HR) X Stroke Volume (SV).
We also have two terms that is EDV (End Diastolic Volume) and ESV (End Systolic Volume)
Stroke Volume = End Diastolic Volume - End Systolic Volume
Now,
The given values in above question are:
CO = 5 l/m
EDV = 100 ml
ESV = 50 ml
First we will find the SV => 100 - 50 = 50 ml/bt
Finding the Heart Rate, CO = HR X SV
5 l/m = HR X 50 ml/bt
5000 ml/m = HR X 50 ml/bt ( Converting L into ml)
HR = 5000/50 bt/m
HR = 100 bt/m Ans.
