The Dude: Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man. Jesus Quintana: Let me tell you something, pendejo. You pull any of your crazy shit with us, you flash a piece out on the lanes, I'll take it away from you, stick it up your ass and pull the fucking trigger 'til it goes click.. The Dude: Jesus. Jesus Quintana: You said it, man.
Microwaves. Â­Not surprisingly, a mÂ­icrowave oven uses microwaves to heat food. Microwaves are a type of wave that are sandwiched between radio waves and infrared radiation on the electromagnetic spectrum. In the case of microwave ovens, the commonly used wave frequency is roughly 2,450 megahertz (2.45 gigahertz). Waves in this frequency range have an interesting property: They're absorbed by water, fats and sugars. Once absorbed, they're converted directly into atomic motion -- heat.
A microwave oven works by passing microwave radiation through the food. Water, fat, and sugar molecules in the food absorb energy from the microwave beam in a process called dielectric heating.Some molecules rotate as they try to align themselves with the alternating electric field induced by the microwave beam. microwave oven works by passing microwave radiation through the food.
