What else can I help you with?
What type of wave lenght would be longer than infrared rays?
Microwaves would have longer wavelengths than infrared rays.
How does microwaves harm the body?
Microwaves are a form of non-ionizing radiation that can penetrate the body, primarily affecting tissues with higher water content. Prolonged and high-level exposure to microwaves can cause tissue heating and potentially lead to thermal burns. However, when used in accordance with safety standards, microwave ovens are considered safe for heating food.
Which type of electromagnetic wave would be most useful for a device to warm food safely?
Microwaves would be most useful for a device to warm food safely. Microwaves are able to penetrate food and generate heat through a process known as dielectric heating, which allows for efficient and even heating without causing the food to become overly hot on the outside while remaining cold on the inside.
How would you list alpha partcles beta particles and gamma rays in order of increasing penetrating power?
Alpha particles are the least penetrating, and are not able to pass through a single sheet of paper. Beta particles can penetrate through a sheet of paper, but not a piece of aluminum. Gamma rays can travel through both paper and aluminum and it takes dense material like lead to stop them or reduce their number. Gamma rays are high energy electromagnetic rays.
What is the relative danger of a 1.1 mev gamma ray and a 1.1 mev alpha?
From an external source the gamma is more penetrating so would be more dangerous. If ingested the alpha becomes more dangerous, as there is no shielding inside your body, and the alpha particles have more biological effect. Of course the size of the source also matters, but alpha particles are easily stopped when outside your body
Why are microwaves not used for communicating with submarines?
Microwaves would be a great way to communicate with submarines, but they'd have to surface to use that method of connecting. Surfacing would defeat the purpose of having the submarine out there, and could easily expose it to detection. We do use radio to communicate with submarines, but not microwaves. Microwave energy has a very limited ability to penetrate water. Very low frequencies can penetrate water to a certain extent, though. And that's why we don't bother with microwaves for submarine communication.
What would happen to relative humidity in the room if the air conditioner turned on?
If the water vapor amount stayed the same, then the relative humidity would be greater.
What are negotation skills?
I would say that they are the ability of a person to see the relative perspective of both sides of an argument with the additional ability to see a path to guide them to an agreement both sides can live with.
What type of professions would study microwaves?
The radiologist
Where would you place microwaves on the electromagnetic spectrum?
Microwaves would be found below infrared radiation, which is below visible light. They'd be at the top of what is called the radio spectrum.
Where would one shop for a sale for microwaves?
Microwaves that are on sale can be found at most major electrical dealers such as Curry's and Comet. On the internet microwaves can be found at Amazon or eBay usually at sale prices.
What would you do for a penetrating injury to the eye?
You don't pull out the object that is penetrating the eye. Stabilize it if you can.
Why aren't microwaves used to heat homes?
Microwaves are usually tuned to heat the water in things. We are mostly water and would be cooked.
What happens if world didn't have microwaves?
They would use stove.
How are microwaves affected by air glass and water?
This depends upon the particular frequency of the microwaves. Your microwave oven uses microwaves that are tuned to the exact resonance frequency of the water molecule, therefore they are absorbed by water and cause it to get hotter. Other frequencies would tend to pass through water. Similarly, microwaves normally pass through both air and glass, although there are some frequencies that would be absorbed by glass. Air is transparent to all frequencies of microwaves.
Which microwaves are the safest?
Well i relaly would not worry about your microwave poisioning your food of some type. 99% of Microwaves sold in stores are 100% safe and you have nothing to worry about
This isn't one of those microwaves that catch on fire is it?
GE is a world leading brand and would recall any microwaves that were prone to catch on fire, there are no known issues with this model that would lead one to believe it would unexpectedly catch on fire.
