Most people use the microwave to heat coffee or make popcorn. But it can do so much more. For example, it is use for any recipe that calls for braising, poaching, or steaming. Remember to take the food out a minute or two before it's completely done. As soon as the microwave energy is absorbed by the food, it is converted to heat so the microwave energy can not contaminate the food.
What else can I help you with?
Name good or bad things about microwaves?
Microwaves are good for heating things fast. Don't stay near one, it can cause cancer because microwaves work on heating the water in the food, and we are 70% water and it could mess up our cells
Can wood absorb microwaves?
No, wood does not absorb microwaves as effectively as food or liquids do. Microwaves are designed to excite water molecules in food, causing them to heat up. Wood contains very little water, so it is not a good absorber of microwaves.
What are microwaves repelled by?
It is more correct to say that microwaves are reflectedrather than repelled. A good electrical conductor will reflect them, and aluminum foil works well.
Are cheap microwaves bad?
No I had a cheap microwave. It was still a good microwave
What health hazard from using microwaves in kitchen?
Provided the Microwave is in good working order - none. The microwaves are contained within the metal interior of the oven itself.
Can microwaves be reflected?
Yes, microwaves can be reflected. Metallic surfaces, such as aluminum foil or metal walls, are good at reflecting microwaves due to their conductive properties. This reflection can be utilized to redirect microwave radiation in certain applications, such as in microwave ovens.
What property of microwaves makes them good for heating food?
Microwaves heat food by causing water molecules in the food to vibrate, creating friction and generating heat. This method is efficient and fast, as microwaves directly target and heat the water molecules in the food.
Is there copper in microwaves?
No, microwaves are a form of electromagnetic radiationand like all electromagnetic radiation is composed of massless particles called photons or is waves depending on how it is measured.Copper is a metal.
Are microwaves good or bad for us?
As with any other wavelength of the electromagnetic spectrum, they can be good or bad depending on the use to which they are put.
What washes up on beaches?
Microwaves
What three things are microwaves attracted to?
Microwaves are attracted to water molecules, sugars, and fats in food. These molecules are good at absorbing the microwave radiation and converting it into heat, which cooks the food.
Which of the following is true of microwaves?
microwaves are used in radar
