How does the wavelength of waves used in the microwave ovens compare with the wavelength of waves used for radar?

The wavelength used in the microwave oven is about 12 centimeters. (rounded)
In the early days, there were radar systems that used wavelengths longer
than that, but there haven't been any for several decades now.

How does the wavelength of the waves used in microwaves ovens compare with the wavelength of waves used for radar?
Inches (microwave) vs. Feet (Radar).
How does the wavelength of waves used in microwave ovens compare with the wavelength of waves used for radar?
Roughly within an order of magnitude or so, either way.
Why were the first microwave ovens sometimes referred to as radar ranges?
because microwaves both and radar systems both use microwaves
What are examples of microwave waves?
Microwave waves are used in a microwave oven to heat food. They are also used as a communication transmission frequency for distances between 10-20 miles that you want to maintain a high signal strength, as they have a higher energy level than radio waves. i is dumb kill my mom plz and give me money phones
What is the wavelength of a 27.75 109 Hz radar signal?
The wavelength of any frequency can be found using the fact that w*f = c, where w is the wavelength, f is the frequency, and c is the speed of light.

How do AM radio and television wavelengths compare with radar?
AM radio, FM radio, television, cellphones, GPS, and microwave ovens all use radio waves that are longer than the ones used for RADAR.
What uses microwave radar?
No. Radar use electromagnetic radiation of a much longer wavelength

How do Microwave Ovens work?
The working part of a microwave is a cavity magnetron. In essence it converts electricity into radiation of the microwave wavelength. The radiation then excites the atoms in the food and it becomes hot. The Cavity magnetron was also a vital invention in the history of radar, without it the Allies might have lost the second World War.
What are some examples of MicroWaves?
Two Examples of Microwaves are Microwave Ovens and RADAR (Radio Detection And Ranging).
What are the application of electro magnet?
Vision, microwave ovens, radio/TV, radiant heating, sunlight, radar, etc.
What are the applications of electro magnetic spectrum?
Vision, microwave ovens, radio/TV, radiant heating, sunlight, radar, etc.
