In a microwave oven, we find that microwave energy (from the microwave portion of the electromagnetic spectrum) are used. In a conventional oven, gas or electricity is used to create infrared heat, so we find infrared radiation (from the infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, which is just below the visible light or optical portion) used there. If the oven happens to be a combination microwave and conventional, we'll find both types of electromagnetic waves generated for use inside.
The part of the electromagnetic spectrum with the lowest frequency and longest wavelength is radio waves. They are used for communication, broadcasting, and radar.
Light, radio waves, and microwave ovens are all part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Microwaves used in microwave ovens are a type of radio wave with a higher frequency and shorter wavelength than radio waves, but lower than visible light. This allows microwaves to be absorbed by water, fat, and sugars in food, causing them to vibrate and generate heat, which cooks the food.
Yes, microwaves are a form of electromagnetic energy that fall within the electromagnetic spectrum. They have frequencies between radio waves and infrared radiation, and are commonly used in microwave ovens for heating food.
The part that we call "Extremely Low Frequency Radio Waves".
Microwaves are a type of electromagnetic radiation that falls within the electromagnetic spectrum. They have longer wavelengths and lower frequencies than visible light, but shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies than radio waves. Microwaves are commonly used in microwave ovens for cooking food and in communication technologies such as cell phones and Wi-Fi.
