There are about 1030 BTUs in a cubic foot of natural gas. If one wishes to know the gas consumption (in feet3 per hour) for a given BTU per hour usage rate, one would divide the amount of BTUs by 1030. That would yield the number of cubic feet of gas that is used per hour. Q: I'm heating a space using 10,300 BTUs per hour and I'm using my natural gas heater to do it. How many cubic feet of gas am I using per hour? A: 10,300 BTUs (the heat generated per hour) divided by 1030 (the number of BTUs per cubic foot of gas) equals 10 cubic feet. You're using 10 cubic feet per hour. You apply 10,300 BTUs to heat the space per hour, and you use 10 cubic feet of gas per hour to do that. (And yes, I picked easy numbers.)
If you calculate your BMR this will tell you how many calories your body needs a day to maintain its weight. If you then consume 500 extra calories a day for a full week you should gain around a pound in weight. So I would say the answer is 3500 calories.
A calculator? It depends. You could probably get a really cheap one in a pound shop or something but if you want one that is scientific it could be around the 10/15 pound mark. Hope this helps :)
If one burns off roughly one calorie per 20 steps, then it should take about 70,000 steps to burn off 3500 calories or 1 pound of body fat.
Most of the time, the amount of steps vary. But for a 150 pound person with 2,000 steps per mile at a pace of 3 mph, it takes around 20-30 steps to burn one calorie. There is a calorie calculator online that you can use.
20,141 BTUs in one pound of natty.

From high school science class; it takes 144 BTUs to melt a pound of ice. That takes it to 32 degrees F. To then raise the temp to 72 deg., would take about 40 more BTUs.
One BTU is the energy required to raise one pound of water by one degrees. Therefore, your answer would be one half.
actually its 313.
313 Btu
There are no BTUs in an office water-cooler. But you can calculate how many BTUs are removed by the cooler. One BTU or British Thermal Unit is the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of one pound of water one degree Fahrenheit. There for when you remove one BTU you are lowering one pound of water one degree Fahrenheit. So if you know how many pounds of water you have and the temperature of the water you start with and the temperature of the water comming out of the cooler you can calculate how many BTUs the cooling unit of the water cooler has removed. BTU=Temp1 - Temp 2 X LB water
212 - 80 = 132 degrees temperature increase x 1 pound water = 132 BTU
LATENT HEAT OF FUSION When one pound of ice melts, it absorbs 144 BTUs at a constant temperature of 32°F. If one pound of water is to be frozen into ice, 144 BTUs must be removed from the water at a constant temperature of 32°F.
3,966,000 BTUs
There are at least 5 different definitions for slightly different BTUs. One of them says that 1 kWh = 3412.14 BTUs. Let's use that one. 1 kWh = 3412.14 BTUs 12 kWh = 40,945.68 BTUs
Well, one kitchen match is 1 BTU.
