Microwaves are a form of electromagnetic energy, which means that they are waves that travel through space that transmit energy from a source to the object with which they will interact, such as food. Other well-known's forms of electromagnetic energy are light, TV, radio, x-rays and more. When these microwaves enter into food, for example, they effect the behavior of molecules such as water and are able to translate their energy into the energy of the water molecules, thereby raising their energy state, which then gets transformed into heat. The big advantage of microwaves when heating things is that, in contrast to ordinary heat which eats an object from the outside, microwave can heat both the outside and the inside simultaneously. But it is critical to understand that microwaves are a form of energy, not a form of heat. It is this energy which creates heat through its interaction with the food.
The waves of energy must be absorbed by the food so that the energy the wave was carrying is transferred as heat.
Because it takes up space, and anythign that has mass in it is matter.
no, because microwaves do not take up space
The radiation left over from the big bang is found in the microwave region of the electromagnetic spectrum. As the universe expanded and cooled, the intense hard gamma radiation that existed became radio waves in the low gigahertz region, characteristic of a temperature around 30 Kelvin.
The study of how matter and energy interact is commonly known as physics.
The matter absorbs or reflects the light.
