And before I get yelled at for having such a liberal definition of solute (which I admit, is a bit foolish!), knowing this number is important when your actual solute (not water) changes the volume of the solution and especially in a nonlinear fashion. 1  permalink. 2  embed. 3  save. give gold.
Better Than the Elevator. The website HealthStatus notes a person who weighs 160 pounds burns about nine calories during a minute of walking up a set of stairs. During the same activity, a 210-pound person burns about 12 calories. If climbing a flight of stairs takes you about 30 seconds, expect to burn half the above calories. While this calorie burn might seem low, standing in the elevator for a minute burns about one and two calories, respectively, for the two people.
How many calories are burned walking instead of riding. The amount of calories varies by distance walked and also the metabolic rate of the golfer. But fitness experts estimate you'll burn roughly 1,500 calories during a four-hour round. That's 825 calories more--or roughly a Burger King Whopper and some onion rings--than if you ride in a cart. Interestingly, in most studies, it was only slightly more beneficial to carry your clubs vs. walking with a pushcart.
