The formula to calculate the calories burned while doing laundry is:
\[ C = \text{MET} \times W \times T \]
Where:
Calories burned while doing laundry refers to the energy expenditure of an individual while performing laundry-related tasks. This can include activities such as sorting clothes, loading and unloading the washing machine, hanging clothes to dry, and folding them. The number of calories burned depends on various factors such as the individual’s weight, the intensity of the activity, and the duration for which the activity is performed. The Metabolic Equivalent of Task (MET) is a useful measure to estimate the energy expenditure for different activities, including laundry.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula to calculate the calories burned (C):
\[ C = \text{MET} \times W \times T = 2.3 \times 70 \times 1 = 161 \text{ kcal} \]
The Calories Burned (C) is 161 kcal.
