A toaster produces waves of electromagnetic radiation. The wavelength of these waves is similar to the wavelength of red light, hence why the wires in toasters glow red. As we heat up the wire, electrons are exited to a higher energy level, when they come back down an energy level, they produce a quanta of energy, a photon. ie a particle of light :)

Which energy conversion takes place when a toaster is switched on?

Electrical energy is converted into thermal energy when a toaster is switched on. The electrical current passes through a resistive material in the toaster, which heats up due to its resistance and produces the heat needed to toast bread.


How did the toaster oven get its name?

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.


What kind of wave does a jackhammer make?

A jackhammer produces mechanical or sound waves. The mechanical waves are produced by the physical vibrations of the jackhammer, while the sound waves are generated by the noise it produces as a result of these vibrations.


What is the name given to the waves of energy that an earthquake produces?

The waves of energy that an earthquake produces are called seismic waves. There are two main types: body waves, which travel through the Earth's interior, and surface waves, which travel along the Earth's surface.


What type of waves the sun produces?

The sun produces electromagnetic waves, including visible light, ultraviolet light, and infrared radiation. These waves travel through space and reach the Earth, providing light and heat to support life.
