How a Microwave OvenWorks

Microwaves

 

are

radio

waves

waves.

 

They

will

pass

through

glass, plastic,

paper

and

of

that

are not metal.

Microwaves

bounce

 

off

metal and are absorbed

by food.

food

absorbs

because

Water

in

the

food

are

When all safety systems are secure (door shut completely and the

START button pushed), electric current IS allowed to reach the

magnetron tube. The magnetron tube uses electricity to create

microwaves. They pass through a metal tunnel called the waveguide, past the wavetuner, into the oven cavity.

Just at the point where the microwaves are about to go Into the oven cavity, Whirlpool Microwave Ovens use a mode mixer (a slow-moving

metal fan) to scatter them. If all the microwaves went in the same

direction, they’d all bounce In the same direction, like water from a
