Yes, a microwave contains simple machines, primarily the lever and the pulley. The turntable inside the microwave is supported by a rotating mechanism that acts like a pulley, allowing it to spin and evenly cook food. Additionally, the door latch mechanism can function as a lever, providing a mechanical advantage when opening and closing the microwave door.
