Firstly, temperature is defined by the amount of vibrations occurring in a material's atoms. Certain materials, like water; fats and sugars, can be polar molecules (which means due to certain characteristics, they have a negative and positive end). Microwave ovens create an electrical field of electromagnetic microwaves, which attract the polar molecules into a certain direction.

Because microwaves oscillate (bob up and down), the polar molecules are therefore pulled up and down with them, causing them to vibrate. This vibration, as explained above, causes the temperature to increase.

Why are there cold spots in microwaves?

The microwave probably couldn't reach the spots. Maybe you could put something inside to heat it up, hot water? You could remove the plate and reheat the microwave before you cook food.


If the enamel under the plate on a microwave chips and exposes the metal below should you still use your microwave?

If the enameled metal tray came standard with the unit (as some do) and the enamel chips off exposing the metal, it won't affect the operation of the microwave. The enamel coating on the metal tray is transparent to microwaves. It's enamel, which is basically ceramic, and microwaves see right through it. The microwaves go right through the enamel and bounce off the metal like the enamel wasn't there. If it isn't there, the microwaves won't notice. No problem. Reminder: Keep the cavity (the place where you put the items to be heated) clean. That way there will be no deposits that can create "hot spots" on the inside surfaces of the unit. This is a safety issue as well as a health issue. (You don't want hot spots on the inside of the door and around the inside of the oven.) Now you're an expert. As always, good luck and bon appétit.
