How your microwave oven works
Magnetron
Microwave ovens are safe.
Microwave
energy is not hot. It causes food to make its
own heat, and it’s this heat that cooks the
food.
Microwaves are like TV waves or light
waves. You cannot see them, but you can
see what they do.
Ovdn cavity
A magnetron in the microwave oven
produces microwaves. The microwaves
move into the oven where they contact food
as it turns on the glass turntable.
