What are the energy waves produced in a microwave oven?
The energy waves produced in a microwave oven take the form of electromagnetic radiation at about 2,450 MHz, which is in the microwave range.
What is the wavelength of a wave produced by a microwave oven?
The frequency at which a microwave oven operates, about 2,450 MHz, has a wavelength of about 12 cm.
How are micro waves produced?
Microwaves are electromagnetic waves with a frequency of about 2.45 GHz and a wavelength of about 12.2 cm; in the electromagnetic spectrum, they fall before infrared light but after radio waves (Heckert 2007). In a microwave oven, microwaves are produced by a device called a magnetron.-Google
What kind of waves are used in a microwave oven?
Radio waves , at a frequency of 2.5 GHz, and very high power.
Is light energy used in a microwave oven?
The microwave energy in a microwave oven is of a much lower frequency than light, but light is electromagnetic energy like the microwave radiation is.

How do microwave oven cook what is the nature of radiation in microwave ovens?
It is radio waves, at the frequency of 2.45 GHz, and very high power.
Which kind of oven operates on short electromagnetic waves?
Microwave oven
What are the effects of microwave frequency on car electronics components?
microwave is an oven
What is the frequency range of a microwave?
The "microwave" range of radio waves is defined as frequencies between 3 - 300 GHz. But the question says " a " microwave, so we suspect it's talking about the box you use to heat the leftover meat loaf. The microwave oven operates in the Industrial/Scientific/Medical frequency band, at or near 2,450 MHz. (So, technically, it isn't a 'microwave' at all, since that frequency is below the range defined as 'microwave'. Guess it should be called a "UHF Oven".)
Is light energy used in a microwave oven?
The microwave energy in a microwave oven is of a much lower frequency than light, but light is electromagnetic energy like the microwave radiation is.
What are waves used in radar?
Longitudinal (radio) waves are the type of waves used in radar, and they are microwave frequency waves, which are high frequency and have short wavelengths.A link is provided to the Wikipedia article on radar. You can surf on over and check it out. A link is also provided to a related question.
What is the largest microwave oven ever produced?
The C-Max Microwave Oven has 1200 watts of power which I believe is the most power of any microwave oven.
What is The wavelength of the wave produced in a microwave oven is?
There should be a note somewhere on the oven stating the frequency of the waves produced. It's normally around 2.5gigahertz. You can use this to workout the wavelength. The speed of the microwaves is the same as the speed of light, 3x10 to power of 8 metres per second. To get the wavelength you divide the speed by the frequency; 300 000 000m/s divided by 2 500 000 000waves/s which gives 0.12metres or 12cm.
