Can you get radiation from the microwave by opening the door before the cycle is finished?

Not unless it's broken.
When the door opens, the cycle is supposed to stop immediately. It's supposed to be impossible for the unit to run with the door open, even for an instant.
Yet, if the door is opened before the microwave has gone through the required number of beeps(when time is up) one might run the risk of radiation exposure, only for a short while. Which ultimately increases chances of cancer.

Why are there cold spots in microwaves?
The microwave probably couldn't reach the spots. Maybe you could put something inside to heat it up, hot water? You could remove the plate and reheat the microwave before you cook food.
How can control the radiation level after the nuclear power plant explosion?
many precautions can be taken before the radioactivity is released but after all we can do right now is predict where the radiation will end up and evacuate those areas.
Before the water in the pot can heat up the pot itslef must heat up does the pot heat up by conduction convection or radiation?
Conduction.
What things stop heat radiation?
Wearing lots of clothes in Winter slows down heat radiation. Large, heavy walls between you and the source of heat will protect you from high temperatures. Large tanks of Water will take in large amounts of heat before becoming warm
How is infrared radiation different from visible radiation?
Both are examples of electromagnetic radiation. Infrared has a longer wavelength (lower frequency) than visible light. Of course visible light is visible to humans and infrared is not (although long wave Infrared is sensible to humans as heat).
Should you be worried that your WiFi internet goes out whenever the microwave is on. Im not worried about the WiFi but what the microwave might be doing my family?
Yes you should be worried. You should get the microwave tested for radiation leakage before you use it again.
What is the background noise of the big bang theory?
The Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation was predicted by proponents of Big Bang Cosmology (BBC) about 18 years before it was found. Its existence, isotropy, and spectrum is easy to explain with BBC; pretty much impossible to explain using alternatives.
How can make a sentence with microwave?
I put the burrito in the microwave before I ate it.
Is microoven is harmful for health?
Not if it's maintained and serviced properly. The microwave radiation is contained completely within the oven compartment. It is possible for the radiation to leak if the door doesn't fit properly - however - regular maintenance should spot any problems before they arise.
Where are the presents kept before opening them?
before they opening they see it under tree
What is more reflective toward radiation mirror or aluminum foil?
I would have to say aluminum foil, since radiation can travel through glass. radiation is reflected from the surface of aluminum foil. With a mirror the radiation has to travel through a small layer of glass twice before the mirror is finished with it. Glass is not totally transparent, some light is absorbed so the naked aluminum reflects better.
Can a toothbrush go in a microwave?
trust me , i have tried before and it resulted in plastic on the plate of my microwave , and an incredibley bad smell :-(
What are some of radiation?
A simple example of radiation is to turn on a light-bulb, and bring your hand close to it. The closer your hand gets, you begin to feel the heat from the light bulb. This is radiated heat energy. As soon as you turn on the light-bulb, even before you bring your hand close to it, you SEE it, because of the electromagnetic radiation in the VISIBLE range that leaves it. Another example of radiation can be a lava lamp. Radiation is the whole reason how a lava lamp works. Also there is ultraviolet, visible, infrared, gamma, microwave, X, alpha, beta, etc.
How does cosmic backround radiation differ from the big bang?
Cosmic microwave background radiation was predicted by Big Bang Cosmology about 16 years before the former was discovered -- by accident. The existence, isotropy, and spectrum of CMBR are all exactly as predicted by BBC, and all alternatives to BBC are reduced to stating, "It's just there and there is absolutely no explanation for it."
What type of solar radiation does the ozone layer absorb?
UV-C and UV-B, as most of the more energetic wavelengths are gone before the ozone layer. credit goes to ANSWERS
What is better grill or convection microwave oven?
Microwaves are used to heat food by using electromagnetic radiation and is powered by electricity. Convection ovens can be powered by electricity or gas and will cook food by hot air that circulates around the chamber.
How many times do you space after an opening bracket?
There is a space before an opening bracket, but I am reasonably sure there is no space after the opening bracket. Neither is there one before the closing bracket.
