- How A Microwave works.
- A microwave has a magnetron
that produces microwaves. These
waves travel through a wave
guide that turns on a stirrer. The
bounce off the walss until tehy
get in the food.
- Water molecules are dipolar (have a positive and negative end).
They act as tiny magnets and are pulled one way then the other. This
causes friction between the water molecules, which produces heat.
