Answer 1

I am a member at http://www.weightlossresources.co.uk and they have an exercise section which will tell u how many calories you have burned. There is also a section where u input what food u have had and it tells u how many calories you have had.

U can get a free 3 day trial too if u dont wanna sign up

Answer 2

the number of calories is hard to figure out as a generalization. it actually depends on how difficult the activity is for you. for general guidelines try http://www.fitday.com. They have a caloric intake calculator and goal setting area as well as an area to figure calories burned by daily activity.

Read some tips and articles on calorie counting on this site which shows you what burns how much

look at this site. I think though it all depends on your fitness. THe more work you have to do (ie the less fit you are) the more you burn. So if you jog for 30 min and you are unfit. and somebody who is fit jogs for 30 min they burn less than you.
