Electricity is converted (using a magnetron) to microwaves, these are transmitted as standing waves into the chamber, in which you put your food. It's designed so that the energy will be contained inside the microwave. These cause the water molecules in the food to vibrate faster, which is how the temperature is raised.
What else can I help you with?
Do energy conversions occur without gain or loss of energy?
No, energy conversions always involve a transfer of energy from one form to another. Some energy will always be lost in the form of heat or other forms of energy during the conversion process, due to factors like inefficiencies in the system or resistance.
What energy conversions occur to a flashlight?
A flashlight converts chemical energy stored in batteries to electrical energy, which is then converted to light energy through a bulb or LED. Heat energy may also be produced as a byproduct of these conversions.
What are energy conversions in a oven?
electrical energy of when you turn the oven on to thermal energy when it is heating up
What i the wasted energy of a microwave?
In a microwave, wasted energy can occur due to heat loss through the walls of the oven, inefficient conversion of electrical energy to microwave radiation, and energy not being absorbed by the food being heated. This can result in lower efficiency and longer cooking times.
What energy changes occur in a microwave oven?
In a microwave oven, electrical energy is converted into microwave radiation. This radiation excites water molecules in the food, causing them to vibrate and generate heat through friction. This heat then cooks the food.
When the energy conversions that occur when coal is formed and then burned to produce thermal energy?
It turns into energy
What energy conversions occur when a car engine burns gas?
MOTION

What are 2 energy conversions that takes place when you warm up a cup of cocoa in a microwave oven?
When you warm up a cup of cocoa in a microwave oven, electrical energy is converted to electromagnetic radiation (microwaves) to heat up the water molecules in the cocoa. The absorbed radiation energy is then converted to thermal energy, raising the temperature of the cocoa.

What energy conversions occur for an electric motor?
It helps to think about the purpose of an electric motor. It is designed to move things, so it produces mechanical energy. As the name suggests, such a motor gets its energy from electrical energy.
What are the three energy conversions that might occur in a power plant?
I think is a fuel in a substance that provides to form of energy such as heat, light, electricity, or motion as the result of a chemical change.
