"Microwave" is the term used to refer to radio waves with frequencies above 3 GHz (3,000 MHz).
Just like radio waves at lower frequencies, microwaves are used primarily for communication, and are generated in basically the same way.
The use of the title for the "microwave" oven is somewhat illegitimate, since those appliances operate at frequencies near 2.5 GHz, which is not formally part of the "microwave" portion of the spectrum.

What country do microwaves come from?
Microwaves were invented in the United States in the 1940s. They were first developed for cooking purposes and have since become a common household appliance around the world.
Where do microwaves come?
Microwaves are electromagnetic waves that are used in microwave ovens to heat food by causing water molecules in the food to vibrate and generate heat. They are created by an electronic vacuum tube called a magnetron inside the microwave oven.
Where are Emerson microwaves made?
Emerson microwaves are manufactured in China.
What type of rays do microwaves use for cooking food?
Microwaves use electromagnetic radiation, specifically microwaves, to cook food.
How do microwaves give off radiation?
Microwaves emit electromagnetic radiation in the form of microwaves when they are turned on. This radiation is absorbed by food and causes water molecules in the food to vibrate, generating heat that cooks the food.
Does an automatic 'popcorn' button come on most brands of microwaves?
Yes it is an available option on most microwaves

Why do chihuahuas hate microwaves?
Their natural instincts tell then to stay away from the radiation emitting food to rubber machine.
Does the intercontinental in Milwaukee have microwaves in the hotel rooms?
They do not come with the room but they do have them available to rent for a reasonable fee.
Are there microwaves that come with a spinning glass plate?
The HEC Microwave Oven comes With the Glass Turntable
How do microwaves interact with matter at the atomic level in the field of physics?
Microwaves interact with matter at the atomic level by causing the atoms and molecules to vibrate and generate heat through a process called dielectric heating. This occurs when the microwaves' electromagnetic waves match the natural frequency of the molecules, causing them to absorb the energy and increase in temperature.
Does an automatic 'leftovers' button come on most brands of microwaves?
Most brands have a "leftovers" or "reheat" button
Why microwaves do not come out through the small holes in the door of a microwave oven?
The dimensions of the holes are less than half the wavelength of the microwaves. Most microwaves operate at 2.5 GHz making the wavelength about 1cm. Half of that is 0.5 cm. Any hole small than this will not allow the wave to pass through.
