'Microwave' is not a scientific term, and encompasses a wide range of frequencies. Wikipedia speaks of a range between 0.3 and 300GHz, resulting in a wavelength between one meter and one millimeter.
Other interpretations of the colloquial term 'microwave' might exist.

Where are Emerson microwaves made?
Emerson microwaves are manufactured in China.
What is the compound word for very small and waves?
The compound word for very small and waves is "microwaves." "Micro" means very small, typically referring to something on a microscopic scale, and "waves" refers to the oscillations or vibrations that propagate through a medium. In this context, "microwaves" specifically refers to electromagnetic waves with wavelengths in the microwave range, typically between 1 millimeter and 1 meter.
What type of rays do microwaves use for cooking food?
Microwaves use electromagnetic radiation, specifically microwaves, to cook food.
How do microwaves give off radiation?
Microwaves emit electromagnetic radiation in the form of microwaves when they are turned on. This radiation is absorbed by food and causes water molecules in the food to vibrate, generating heat that cooks the food.
Where are GE microwaves made?
GE microwaves are manufactured in Louisville, Kentucky, USA.

What are the advantages of small microwaves?
Some advantages to owning a small microwave are: They are cheaper than regular microwaves, they take up less space, will require less electricity to function.
What are the benefits of under cabinet microwaves and how do they compare to traditional countertop microwaves?
Under cabinet microwaves save counter space and provide a sleek look. They are convenient for small kitchens. Traditional countertop microwaves are more portable and easier to install.
Why microwaves do not come out through the small holes in the door of a microwave oven?
The dimensions of the holes are less than half the wavelength of the microwaves. Most microwaves operate at 2.5 GHz making the wavelength about 1cm. Half of that is 0.5 cm. Any hole small than this will not allow the wave to pass through.
Do small microwaves cost less to operate than large microwaves?
Small microwaves use fewer watts of energy to heat food, but there may be a trade off with requiring a slightly longer cooking time. Any net gain is unlikely to be noticeable on your monthly energy bill. When you choose a microwave, you should select it based on the available kitchen space you have for it.
Why is the prefix micro used to describe microwaves?
The prefix "micro-" is used in microwaves to indicate that the wavelength of these waves is in the range of micrometers, also known as microwaves. The term microwaves distinguishes these electromagnetic waves from other types of waves, such as radio waves or infrared waves, based on their specific wavelength range.
What are the benefits of a small microwave versus a larger one?
Less power usage and less counter space take up. Small microwaves are great for small families or single people
Why did microwaves sell well in Japan?
Japanese cooking required reheating, and since most Japanese houses and kitchens were small, microwave ovens were the perfect space savers. Japan exported microwaves to the United States in the 1970s
