Best Answer

The microwave oven takes its name from the type of electromagnetic waves it produces to heat the things placed within it.

Electromagnetic waves are a form of energy, these waves include light, gamma rays,X-rays, radio waves. Microwaves have a frequency of between 0.3 and 300 gigahetrz; visible light has frequencies between 400 000 gigahertz for red and 800 000 gigahertz for violet light.

A domestic microwave oven produces waves with a frequency of around 2.5 gigahertz, this means the waves are about 0.12 metres long. They travel at the speed of light.
