"Microwave" is an electromagnetic wave, and is part of the category of radio waves.
A radio wave is "microwave" when its frequency is above 3 GHz (wavelength is
less than 10 centimeters).
Ironically, the "microwave oven" radiates the food with high power radio waves
at a frequency of 2.5 GHz, so technically, it doesn't use 'microwave' energy at all.
What else can I help you with?
How is a microwave an example of a transverse wave?
A microwave is an electromagnetic wave, which is a form of transverse wave. In transverse waves, the vibration or oscillation of the wave occurs perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. In a microwave oven, the transverse microwave radiation heats and cooks food by causing water molecules to vibrate at high frequencies.
Is it true or false that microwave ovens use a type of infrared wave?
Microwave ovens employ microwave radiation, which is lower in frequency than infrared radiation, to generate the heat in the food they cook. They don't use infrared radiation per se.
Is a microwave a mechanical wave?
No. Microwave is a radio wave, which is an electromagnetic wave.No, its actually an electromagnetic waves, just like X-rays and visible light...electromagnetic waves dont need to go through medium ( solid, liquid, gas).
Is a microwave a type of infrared wave?
yes so is am fm radio and tv signals
What type of electromagnetic wave has less energy than a microwave?
Radio waves have less energy than microwaves.
What type of wave is a microwave?
a microwave is an electromagnetic wave.================Answer #2:A microwave is a radio wave with a wavelengthless than 10 cm (frequency greater than 3 GHz).
What is the difference between a microwave and a microwave oven?
A microwave is a type of electromagnetic wave, while a microwave oven is a kitchen appliance that uses microwaves to cook or heat food.
What type of antenna use in telecom?
Short-wave, microwave, cellular telephone
What kind of compound is microwave?
Microwave is applying microwave radiation to chemical reaction.
Is radio wave a light wave?
No, it is actually a microwave wave.
What type of electromagnetic wave is 300E9?
300E9 corresponds to a frequency of 300 GHz, which falls in the microwave region of the electromagnetic spectrum.

What is the diminutive of wave?
The diminutive of wave is wavelet.
