How do electromagnetic waves transfer energy to matter?

Electromagnetic waves transfer energy by acting on "stuff" electromagnetically. This means that electromagnetic radiation (EMR) will "give energy" to something by breaking chemical bonds, providing activating energy to initiate a reaction, or simply "stimulate" chemical bonds to add energy. Will examples help? Got some right here. Light, which is a form of EMR, causes chemical reactions on the structures on the retina of our eyes so we can see. Colors, too! Nothing short of magic, almost. That's EMR initiating chemical reactions. The same thing happens on photographic film. In the new CCD (charged coupled device) cameras, light impinges on semiconductor material and (through photovoltaic action) cause a minute amount of current flow and the electronics figures out how light or dark to make the pixel. Color encoding is an extension of this. In a microwave oven, EMR "tickles" the chemical bonds in water molecules and transfers energy into them. This appears as thermal energy and we can heat our coffee, tea, or toddy with an ease unknown (but possibly suspected) to the most advanced people a hundred years ago. The same thing happens when you're in the sun and your skin warms. The light (EMR) warms the skin by stimulating chemical bonds and causing them to exhibit more kinetic energy. The key to understanding how electromagnetic energy gets transfered into materials is in understanding the sites in the material that will respond to the EMR. This is quantum mechanical stuff, pure and simple. But it really doesn't take an advanced degree to get a handle on it. It breaks down in a way that we can wrap a brain cell around it without any advanced mathematics. We'll add some links in case you feel like exploring. You'll find them below.

What did Roger Penrose do for the black hole theory?

Roger Penrose contributed significantly to the description of physical processes involved in the formation of black holes from massive stars, and the nature of their singularities (which Hawking subsequently extended into formal theorems). He also developed theories regarding the ability to observe them ("cosmic censorship").

How did Escher integrate math and art?

Tessellations incorporate art into mathematical patterns.Escher was fascinated by topography, the study of surfaces, a branch of mathematics. In many of his works, he uses the concept of the Penrose triangle, or "impossible triangle," first designed by the mathematician Roger Penrose. There is also a relationship to the Möbius strip, the single sided loop of material. Escher also used a technique that mathematician study called tesselation.
