What type of wave is microwave?
"Microwave" is an electromagnetic wave, and is part of the category of radio waves.A radio wave is "microwave" when its frequency is above 3 GHz (wavelength isless than 10 centimeters).Ironically, the "microwave oven" radiates the food with high power radio wavesat a frequency of 2.5 GHz, so technically, it doesn't use 'microwave' energy at all.
Are microwave wave longitudinal or transverse?
Microwaves are part of the electromagnetic spectrum and are transverse waves in that the displacement is perpendicular to the direction of travel.
How was the microwave discovered?
The existence of radio waves (of which microwaves are a part) was predicted by James Clerk Maxwell in 1864 from his equations. They were then proved to exist experimentally.
What part of the electromagnetic spectrum is used in ovens?
In a microwave oven, we find that microwave energy (from the microwave portion of the electromagnetic spectrum) are used. In a conventional oven, gas or electricity is used to create infrared heat, so we find infrared radiation (from the infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, which is just below the visible light or optical portion) used there. If the oven happens to be a combination microwave and conventional, we'll find both types of electromagnetic waves generated for use inside.
Can microwave travel through vacuum?
A microwave is near the "red" side of the electromagnetic scale. All electromagnetic travels at the same rate. Light is a form of electromagnetic radiation which travels through a vacuum (space). Thereofore, being a part of electormagnetic radiation, microwaves will travel through a vacuum.
What do satellite television companies use to broadcast microwave signals?
It's a microwave transmitter...literally. They usually run from about 100 watts and the one's we used would do as much as 2,000 watts, if needed. I've no doubt that there are more powerful units out there but these seemed to work OK here in the Midwest for the most part.
How many watts is 1 VDC?
As watts equals volts times amps (ohms law simplified) you are missing part of the equation.. Let's say you are asking about how many watts is 1 amps at 12v then... If W = V x A then 1A at 12v = 12 watts
What is cosmetic microwave background radiation?
this is radiation in the microwave part of the electromagnetic spectrum which comes from all directions in outer space
Where can I get replacement parts?
At the web address, www.repairclinic.com/GE-Microwave-Parts you can find many parts for GE microwaves. Hopefully this site will have the part you need!
The thermal spectrum that is produced by your body peaks in which part of the electromagnetic spectrum?
microwave
Which cost less to operate 120 v appliance or 220 v appliance?
For the most part, they cost about the same. For instance, if you look up a 120V, 2hp electric motor in a catalog, you will find it draws about 18A. 120V * 18A = 2160 watts. If you look up a 240V, 2hp motor, it will draw about 9A. 240V * 9A = 2160 watts. Watts are watts. Watts are what you pay for. It takes a certain amount of power to perform a particular task, irregardless of the voltage supply. You typically see larger loads, such as a dryer, range or AC unit fed from 240V. This is because the lower current draw permits you to run smaller wire, which is less expensive to install.
Will a Schumacher X141DU inverter power your Dell Latitude D810 Laptop?
Read your power listing on the Dell; it could be on the back of the computer, or many times it is on the 'wart' part of your power chord (also can be on the manual). that will tell you how many watts pull you have. The Schumacher does 410 watts continuous, and 800 peak (not reading the manual, but just looking 'as advertised,' though you could look deeper into that) and the watts pull on your dell would need to be below the 410 continuous (which I am sure it is). The 'startup' sometimes could be two to three times the continuous 'watts pulled' by your dell. You should be fine with this inverter, but read the manual of the car you are using because usually they tell you how many watts draw is the maximum on the system off of your cigarette lighters. My max on my car is 160 watts. If your dell is above the watts max off your car system, you can consider 'hardwiring' it straight to your battery with a 'inverter cable kit' that has 10 ft inverter cables with 4 gauge wire to permanently install your inverter in your car.
Which element in the microwave heats the food and is it good for your health to eat food made in a microwave?
Microwave ovens have a "part" or device inside them called a magnetron. The magnetron is a microwave generator, and when we energize it, it generates electromagnetic waves at fairly high power (several hundred watts) and at a microwave frequency (about 2450 megaHertz). The non-ionizing electromagnetic waves or rays generated by the magnetron cause the bonds between hydrogen and oxygen atoms in water molecules to "vibrate" sympathetically with the microwave radiation. The result is that the water molecule is "given energy" by the microwave, and this energy is expressed as "vibration" of the water molecule. It is thermal, or heat energy, and the oven heats/cooks food by heating the water in the food using microwave electromagnetic energy. As stated, this radiation is non-ionizing radiation, and it will not "harm" the food, per se. Normally heated or cooked food that is put thorugh a microwave oven is safe to eat. You will not suffer any ill effects because of something the microwave oven did to the food item(s). Note that the oven can burn food, and burnt food has some toxins in it.
How many amps in 70 watts?
To answer this you have to know how many volts will be used. If you know the voltage then you can calculate the current by dividing voltage into wattage. For example; an electric heater rated at 700 watts when plugged into a 115 v outlet will draw 700/115 = 6.08 amps of current.

What part of food heats up first in a microwave oven middle or outside?
The inside
What part of food does a microwave heat up?
Micro waves heat by vibrating the conductive molecules in items. Pure water (which has no impurities) does Not boil in a microwave oven. It does get extremely hot! Be care and use the recommended time for that your microwave states for water.
