Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves similar to radio waves. While
radio waves may vary in length from one metre to many kilometres, microwaves are
very short (less than 12.5 centimetres). Microwaves do not make any heat
themselves but only cause water molecules in food to vibrate. This vibration produces
heat that cooks the food. This is why your food will come out of the microwave piping
hot, when your utensils inside the oven stay much cooler. The microwaves do not stay
in the air or in the food when you open the microwave oven door.
The microwave oven will work using an ordinary household electrical socket. Inside
the microwave oven is the magnetron, which turns the electrical energy into
microwaves.
Microwaves cannot go through metal, so the inside of the oven is lined with metal.
The door is lined with a fine metal mesh which stops microwaves getting through.
This means that when the microwave oven door is shut, there is no possibility that
microwaves can be released. This is why the microwave oven has been made so that
it will not work when the door is open.
