Because they don't have enough energy (or a short enough wavelength) to knock electrons off of atoms (ionization).
Microwaves are similar to radio waves in terms of their electromagnetic nature and frequency range. They are both forms of non-ionizing radiation found in the electromagnetic spectrum.
Radio, microwaves, radar, and infrared radiation have.
Low-energy, non-ionizing radiation like radio waves and microwaves can easily pass through a brick wall. However, higher-energy ionizing radiation like gamma rays may partially penetrate a brick wall depending on its thickness and density.
Yes, radio waves are a form of radiation. However, they are non-ionizing radiation, which means they do not have enough energy to remove electrons from atoms or molecules. This is in contrast to ionizing radiation, such as x-rays and gamma rays, which have enough energy to ionize atoms.
-- Microwave ARE radio waves.-- All electromagnetic waves travel at the same speed, including radio, microwaves,heat, infrared radiation, light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays, gamma rays, and allthe others.

Radio waves have lower energy than microwaves in the electromagnetic spectrum.
Sound waves are not a form of radiation. Radio waves, microwaves, and gamma rays are all forms of electromagnetic radiation that can travel through space. Sound waves, on the other hand, require a medium (such as air, water, or solids) to propagate.
Microwaves are a form of non-ionizing radiation. They have lower energy than ionizing radiation such as X-rays and gamma rays, and are used in microwave ovens for cooking food by causing water and fat molecules to vibrate, generating heat.
It depends on the context. In medical treatments, ionizing radiation like X-rays and gamma rays are commonly used. In communication and technology, non-ionizing radiation like radio waves and microwaves are more useful. Ultimately, the most useful type of radiation is the one that best suits the specific application or need.
Radio waves have lower energy than microwaves.
