because that is the frequency that a water molecule vibrates at, creating friction, which creates heat.
The frequency range of a microwave oven is typically around 2.45 gigahertz (GHz).
Your combination microwave/oven works but the microwave does not, probably because of a mechanical problem that can be fixed by a technician.
A microwave oven cooks items by heat radiation. There are now so many types, I am only going to mention the better ones Amana, Norge, Kitchen-Aid and Maytag.
It depends, if you need it done fast use the microwave, if you need it slow cooked use the mini oven.
micro @oven safe
A micro convection oven cooks food faster and more evenly than a traditional oven, resulting in shorter cooking times and better texture. It also uses less energy and can help retain more nutrients in the food.
Micro means very small. Microwaves have much smaller wavelengths than radio waves. In a way, it is an arbitrary name, since microwaves also have a larger wavelength than visible light. But that's how it goes. Someone thought the wavelength was small enough to deserve that name.
microwave is an oven
hay you should use an iron,hot stove not oven and also fluid from a lighter..
The word was first coined in 1931 meaning a "type of electromagnetic wave" with a wavelength between that of infrared and short waves (one millimeter to one meter). Micro only means small.
Boil it on the stove and if you dont have one, micro wave it. Ok
Self cleaning oven . I found at times the micro switch's on the latch motor stick. they will be found on the back of the unit under the sheild.
