Microwave ovens cook with several hundred watts of radio waves at a frequency
at or near 2.450 GHz (2,450 MHz) / wavelength = 12 cm.
I think it is to do with the wavelenght of the sound waves. I think there are tiny holes in the microwave and the sound waves are small enough to escape out of the microwave - meanig we can hear our food cook!
They use electromagnetic waves. cellphones use radio waves while electric and microwave ovens use infrared and/or microwaves
Microwave ovens cook faster because they use electromagnetic waves that penetrate food and heat it directly, whereas traditional ovens rely on convection and conduction, which take longer to transfer heat to the food. This allows microwave ovens to heat food more rapidly and efficiently.
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.
Microwaves use electromagnetic waves with a frequency between 300 MHz and 300 GHz, which fall within the microwave region of the electromagnetic spectrum. These waves are used in microwave ovens to heat food quickly and efficiently.

Yes, microwave ovens use electromagnetic radiation.

No, it is not true that the use of microwave ovens is banned in Germany.
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.
Mobile phones use microwaves - similar to those used in microwave ovens (but at much lower power !)
Microwaves use electromagnetic waves with a frequency between 300 MHz and 300 GHz, which fall within the microwave region of the electromagnetic spectrum. These waves are used in microwave ovens to heat food quickly and efficiently.
The wavelength of waves used in microwave ovens is typically in the range of centimeters, while the wavelength of waves used in radar is typically in the range of centimeters to meters. Radar waves have longer wavelengths compared to the waves used in microwave ovens, allowing them to travel longer distances and penetrate certain materials.

Microwave Ovens
There are no radioactive materials in microwave ovens: they use microwaves to cook food and heat liquids.
